Set Up Column Widths Pane

The Fixed Width export method specifies the character position where you want to break the report into columns. The exported output aligns the report fields in columns you set.

To see the Setup Column Width Pane you must select the Fixed Width option for Export Method in the first step of the wizard, Export Options.

You can set up the width of the columns of the report you want to export, based on your requirements. For example, you may require lesser column width for the name and more column width for the description and so on.

To set up column widths, click Setup Column Widths button in the Export Dialog.

Note: If the second step is listed as Setup Column Delimiters, you must go back to step 1, Export Options, and choose Fixed Width as your Export Method.

Follow the instructions to set up the column widths:

• To CREATE a column, click at the desired position.
• To DELETE a column, click on the existing column arrow.
• To MOVE a column, click and drag on the existing arrow.

Note: The first character highlighted by a column break indicator will be the first character in the new column.

The Fixed Width export method column widths are set up. Go to the next step in the wizard, Set Up the Column Details, to continue the export process.
