exporting report does not display cell data

Hello
I have a report whcih has some data and a cell which taken information from a variable .
When i export the date for the file in .csv format , it only gets the data inside the table ,
what i mean to say is that it does not get the data in the cell outside the table .
Is there a way i can get the information also .
Thanks

This question really belongs in one of the “Building Reports” subforums, probably BusinessObjects Classic – or maybe WebI? Tell us which you’re using (and version), and a moderator can move it to the correct forum.

But to answer your question – if you are using the Export to CSV, you are not exporting your report – you’re exporting the underlying data provider, the microcube. So – you will not get variables or other “cells”.

If this is a full-client question, take a look in the BusinessObjects Classic forum’s “FAQ: Reporter” for a frequently-asked question about exporting to Excel for some options.
