Re: Data transfer question

Greg,

This may not be the desired option...

We often create a refreshable file with the standard XA names...but we
then insert a pivot table that contains the user desired information /
report.  Within the pivot table, we rename the column headings to be
more friendly.  Users can then refresh the data and the
pivot...retaining the headings.

Alternatively, we have several 'reports' that have standard headers and
the imported information displays before the headers.  We set Excel to
not include the field names...

Other times (and I know this probably not the most efficient...but is
effective for us)...we create logical views and rename the columns as
desired.  We then refresh using the logical.

I would like to see if anybody gives a direct answer...but we have
'worked around' it as above...

Subject: [MAPICS-L] Data transfer question

I need to transfer the contents of a MAPICS file into an Excel
spreadsheet.
When I do this I get column headings such as ORDNO.

Is there something I can do to get different column headings other than
the field name.
Perhaps ORDER NUMBER.

I want to automate this and not go into Excel to adjust column heading
each time this transfer is run.

Thanks,
Greg
