export from Access to Excel has created problems with
I am a new user with vision impairment, so it is extremely likely that I
missed the help that has already been offered. For that I apologize and thank you for your input. I was working on a database in Access, but was having a problem because of my vision. It was suggested that I would have better luck working in Excel and since I have worked with it before I decided to try. I exported my worksheet to Excel but when I openned it in Excel I immediately noticed something was very different. It is as though every cell has been "formatted as a mini document, complete ith "wrap around". While I can see the usefulness of this, and wouldn't mind being able to figure out how to do that, this is not the place where I want such formating to be. Also, with in the worksheet, over half of the sheet contains extra spaces where none are called for. Example: | 123 | 456 | 789 | | 123 | 456 | 789 | | | | | | 123 | 456 | 789 | I have checked the entire visable record and there is no visable reason for this extra space. It would be understandable if there were wrap-around text in some of the cells of the record but in over half of them there are not. For some reason, about a quarter of the enteries seem unaffected by this. If someone can tell me where I made my mistake and help me get this back working the way a new worksheet would work and look I would be very thankful. Thanks again for your attention. -- Siuan |
