Export Reports

Use the Export Reports window at any time to save or print your table, chart, graph, significance tests, maps, and gap results.

Always save or print your reports before leaving the Build Reports screen to edit report table formats or change variables or criteria on previous screens.

• The report names are listed with the default data tables checked. Charts and maps for each report will only be available on this menu if you have saved them by clicking Done on the last screen when you created them.

If you see that a map or chart is grayed out (not available for selection), cancel the Export Reports tool, go back to your map or chart, and be sure to click Done on the last screen. After that, it will be available for Export.

• Check the files you want to export, and select one of the file types. All reports that you select at the same time will be exported in one file.

In the Excel format, you will be able to increase the decimal places visible, wherever more precision is available in the database. Note that Excel is exported in a custom format, so be cautious about changing formats. For instance, the standard errors are exported as positive numbers, but if you change the format for them to numeric, Excel will interpret the parenthesis around the standard errors as indicative of negative numbers.

Note: Because there are many different operating systems in use, you may get an error message with Excel or one of the other formats. Usually, this will not affect your ability to export, so please wait for software "errors" to resolve themselves.
