Export to Excel - Delete Un-used Sheets.

Hi all,

I know most of us know if but i still got queries where some of our colleges don't know how to delete the un-used sheets while add export to excel functionality in a Report.

So if you know how to do it you can skip this article.

Issue -

When we add the functionality of Export to excel we get a output as shown below. The excel Workbook contain sheets Report and Other standard Sheets which are named as Sheet1 , Sheet2 & Sheet3.


The sheets 1,2 & 3 are of no use and are empty. I don't want these sheets.

Resolution -

I prefer it by creating a function in master tables and calling it from report. I would suggest this also because if you create it in report then you need to create it every time.

I created a function in Table Excel Buffer and i named it as DeleteUnusedSheet as shown below -

PROCEDURE DeleteUnusedSheet@1102153003(SheetName@1102153000 : Text[30]);
    BEGIN
      XlWrkSht := XlWrkBk.Worksheets.Item(SheetName);
      XlWrkSht.Delete;
    END;  



I call this function in Post Report before Giving User Control to the sheet (Function - GiveUserControl).

How to Use From Report -


As  shown above I just called the function before Function GiveUserControl.

I hope you will like this post.

MSDYN365BC - Data Upgrade To Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central on premises.

Hi Readers, We have already talked about the number of steps for upgrading to Business Central on Premises from different NAV versions. After that article, I received multiple requests for an article which list down steps for Data Migration. In this article, we will discuss steps of data migration to MSDYN365BC (on-Prem) from NAV 2017. For this article, I am considering a Cronus Demo Database without any customization. For an actual upgrade project, we will have to complete object merge using compare and Merge process. After the Merge Process, the next step is data migration. Let's discuss those steps. Direct Upgrade to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (on-Prem) is from following versions - 1. NAV 2015. 2. NAV 2016. 3. NAV 2017. 4. NAV 2018.
