I have a report with a subreport, where i'm bringing a value from the sub report to the main report by using the shared variables. Everything works fine but when i export to csv format, all values are present expect the the value that i brought from the sub report.
Its works fine with other export formats.
Can anyone help me with this.

working with DB2 and CR 8.5

Thanks




 
I've had trouble before with cvs export, though not the same trouble as you report. One option is to have a single large formula field that strings together all of the values and puts commas between them. The result can be exported as text, but then treated as a CVS file.

Does this help?

thanks for replaying,

the idea kind if works but the issue is,i have a lot of fields in my reports and the string is not completely showing up in the text file that i'm exporting. I guess i cannot do this way.

any other thoughts?
