When you create a report using the EvDRE Builder, you can import formatting definitions from a previously created EvDRE report (referred to as style workbook).

Prerequisites

You created or have access to the desired style workbook.

Note Note

If you modify the style workbook, the system does not update the new style definitions on reports built using the older version of the style.

The style workbook may contain formatting instructions defining what cells, for example, should be locked, but it cannot be protected. To set up workbook protection, you must set it up in each of the new reports or schedules built that use such a style.

End of the note.

Features

You can import an EvDRE style workbook only when you build a new report using the EvDRE Builder.

When you choose to import styles from an existing EvDRE report, the following items are imported:

  • The Format range of the EvDRE function

  • All workbook options

  • Any Excel-defined styles

  • The workbook color palette

  • The range of cells to the right of the page key range and above the column headings (which might contain a title for the report)

Activities

To import a style workbook, do the following when creating a new report using EvDRE Builder: Select the Allow formatting option, choose the desired Import Style (either from local or from server) and the appropriate style workbook, then choose OK.
