Graphical Indicators (stoplights) showing up in print

B

Bill

Hi,

When I try to print a grid or export a grid to Excel that has graphical
indicators, such as the red-yellow-green stoplights, I seem to always
get a numeric value instead of a graphic.

What I'd like to do is see the graphic indicators in the printed report.
Has anyone been able to get this to work?

Are there 3rd-party reporting tools that allow this feature to be
printed?

Thanks,

Bill H.

Project exports the data -- not the representation of the data.

In Excel you'll have to use Conditional Formatting.

The Excel steps are fairly simple:
1. Select the cells
2. Format | Conditional formatting ...
3. Set the conditions

As part of setting the conditions, make selections in both the "patterns"
tab (the cell background colour) and the "text" tab. If you select a text
colour that is the same as the pattern colour you will hide the actual
values and simply display coloured cells.

If you want to display a graphic rather than simply use a coloured cell,
you'll probably have to visit an Excel newsgroup.

Thanks for the help, John.

I am wondering, instead of going through Excel, is there a way to print
a report with the graphical indicators included from Project Web Access?

Is it possible that there is some extension or web part that allows this
type of reporting?

Thanks!

Anybody else?
