Does anyone know a good way to get Oracle reports into Excel?

RE: Oracle

Hi Jason, Thank you for your post, in answer;
First make a report then; in the "File" Menu there is an option to "Generate File", in that select "Delimited". A small box appears with the window title "Delimited Output". In that window, specify the date format you gave in the report, if there is one. Specify numbers and cell wrappers also. Then click "OK". If there are no special formats simply press OK.
Then, it will ask you to type the file name for generating the output.
Next go to "Save As". Type in the window "Select All Files". In file name box give the file name as ".xls" and save it.
Compile and run the report. Then the report will be generated.
In your folder you will see the file name with the name you had saved with .xls type that will contain data of that particular report.
I hope that has helped, best regards Pete

Excel tip:

Create your own custom list on Excel 2010!

If you know how to use the auto-fill option on Excel then why not create your own customs lists?

The auto fill feature saves you time by allowing you to enter one of the list entries into a cell and then use your mouse to automatically drag the rest of the list into the cells below, above or to either side of the initial cell. When using your mouse to perform this task you will see a thin black cross appear at the bottom right hand side of the cell. Click, hold and drag to make the list appear.

Default lists include weekdays and months. To create your own list in Excel 2010 do the following;

>File
>Options
>Advanced
>Scroll right to the bottom of the page and you will see a buttom "edit custom lists", click this button
>enter your list in the list entries
>click add

Now try it out. Good luck.
