Hierarchical Excel Export
posted

I am exporting a hierarchical data source to excel using the excel exporter with multiple bands.  The bands are indented in Excel when exported.  For example, band 1 starts at column A, band 2's first column is in column B.  Is there any way to make all the bands start in column A?

    Hello,

    To prevent the Child Band Indentation when exporting a Hierarchical WebGrid to EXCEL, check for the Child Band Key in the UltraWebGridExcelExporter HeaderRowExporting and RowExporting events and set the CurrentColumnIndex to 0.

    The following code example demonstrates how:

    protected void UltraWebGridExcelExporter1_HeaderRowExporting(object sender,
           Infragistics.WebUI.UltraWebGrid.ExcelExport.
    HeaderRowExportingEventArgs e)
    {
           // Check for the Child Band Key from the Band
           // to set CurrentColumnIndex Indentation to 0
           if (e.Band.Key == "[Child Band Key]")
           {
                 e.CurrentColumnIndex = 0;
           }
    }

    protected void UltraWebGridExcelExporter1_RowExporting(object sender,
          Infragistics.WebUI.UltraWebGrid.ExcelExport.
    RowExportingEventArgs e)
    {
          // Check for the Child Band Key from the GridRow
          // to set CurrentColumnIndex Indentation to 0
          if (e.GridRow.Band.Key == "[Child Band Key]")
          {
                e.CurrentColumnIndex = 0;
          }
    }

    Please let me know if this helps or if you have any questions.
