Saving a table

Postby jolivier1234 » Mon Jul 11, 2016 11:47 am

Hello,
I am trying to save a table as an enhanced magafile (emf) but when I retrieve the image on my desktop after saving it, the lines in the table, which appear perfectly in the eviews workfile, are cutoff along the vertical lines. I do not encounter any formating issues when saving a graph with emf, only a table. Is there another format I should try saving in or maybe I should build the table lines differently...?
Thank you

What is the end goal? What are you doing with the file after saving?

Hello,
I want to be able to save the table in a format that will allow me to put the table into a final word document. However, I need the table in the final word document (which contains many other things) to be linked. That way when I update the table in eviews, it saves to the intermediary file (what I had originaly tried as an emf) which I insert as linked into my final word document.

I attached an image where you can see the hashes that are created on the vertical lines at each cell but in eviews appear as complete straight lines

The link works but the table still appears with the hashed vertical lines...

I tried all the formats and the only one that seems to keep the original undashed lines is saving directly as a word document, but then I am unable to get that word document (which contains lines of the table not a frozen image of the table) to link properly into my final presentation word document.
Thank you again for your help
