Overview of Exporting from the Designer

All users who have the Export Data capability can use the designer to export data from report objects to Microsoft Excel format for future viewing or printing. This exported output can be saved locally on disk, and then opened in Microsoft Excel.
When you export a graph from SAS Visual Analytics Designer (the designer), you are exporting the data, not the visual graph representation.
Not all report objects in the designer support the exporting feature. For example, you cannot export data from gauges. If the export feature is not available for a particular report object, the Export <reportObjectName> menu item does not appear when you right-click on the object.
