You can select text and graphics when you preview an SPF report in the Report window and copy your selection to the clipboard. You can then paste the text or graphics into another application, such as a word processor or spreadsheet.
To copy text or graphics:
Click on the screen and drag the cursor until you have made the desired selection. The selection is highlighted and has "handles." You can drag these handles to resize your selection.
Select Edit, then Copy or click the Copy button on the toolbar. You can now paste the selection into another application.
If you copy a selection from a tabular report and paste it into a spreadsheet, the data fills the individual cells of the spreadsheet. Since each report and spreadsheet is different, however, you may need to make some minor adjustments after you do the paste.
If your selection contains only graphics, SQR Production Reporting Studio pastes it as a bitmap. If your selection contains any text, SQR Production Reporting Studio attempts to convert the text from bitmap to text. In this case, when you do the paste you can paste either the bitmap or the converted text.
