MultiSheet Property

Sets or returns a value indicating whether each page is to be exported to its own sheet. True indicates that each page in the ActiveReports document will be exported to a separate sheet.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Property MultiSheet As Boolean

public bool MultiSheet {get; set;}

Property Value

Boolean. The default value is False.

Remarks

Setting this value to True can often increase performance and output quality at the cost of memory consumption up to a certain number of pages. The more complex the pages and the more deviation between page layouts in a single document, the lower the number of pages that should be exported to a single sheet. The complicity and deviation of layout between the pages drastically effects this number, but in general, a report with more than 30 pages would be a good candidate for setting this property to False.

Example

private void btnExport_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    ActiveReport1 rpt = new ActiveReport1();
    DataDynamics.ActiveReports.Export.Xls.XlsExport x = new DataDynamics.ActiveReports.Export.Xls.XlsExport();
    rpt.Run();
    this.arv.Document = rpt.Document;
    x.MultiSheet = true;
    x.Export(rpt.Document, Application.StartupPath + "\\export.xls");
}

Visual Basic

Private Sub btnExport_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
    Dim rpt As New ActiveReport1
    Dim x As New DataDynamics.ActiveReports.Export.Xls.XlsExport
    rpt.Run()
    Me.arv.Document = rpt.Document
    x.MultiSheet = True
    x.Export(rpt.Document, Application.StartupPath & "\export.xls")
End Sub
