but it didnt say anything about how to do that.If you can put some code
snippets, that would be perfect.
Thank You

This definitely could be done using the report engine api.
To do this with the viewer will require that you mod the viewer code or
the ajax code that displays the export.

Hello,
Currently, the BIRT web viewer will allow you to export tables into csv
format. However, if your report has multiple table objects, you need to
export each table separately. Is there a way to export multiple tables
at one time? Our situation is that we have several tables in the same
format, but with certain criteria changes (work based on labor,
materials, equipment, etc). We'd like the user to be able to export all
these tables at once,if possible. Thanks.

Kris,
Look at this example. This uses the RE API.

Jason, I tried this and it worked like a charm - thanks very much.
Right now, the resultset list extracted are a collection of resultset
for each column in the report. So when I printed, it didnt print in rows
but in columns.
Report data looks as follows
-------
11 12 13 14 15
21 22 23 24 25
31 32 33 34 35
The printing occurred as follows
-----
11 21 31
12 22 32
13 23 33
14 24 34
15 25 35
Is there any straight forward way to extract data and use the result set
in a row fashion?
Thanks

Kris,
Is you data in one table? If you used the example and exported just
that table it should have retrieved just like your table data. If your
data is in multiple tables and you want one combined output, you will
need to store the data in a hash in your code and print it out when you
are finished. Another option is to make a new report and use the Joint
Data Set to combine your data sets, and add this new joint ds to a table
in the report.

Jason, today I found an interesting thing on this behavior. The

component I was using to display data.I was using a grid before and when
I changed that to a table, it worked as expected. (So, it looks like
each grid column is treated as a separate "table".)
Thanks

This is due to the fact that the grid is individually bound per cell.
