I have several details sections in the report. When I am exporting it to CSV format, it shows all rows of details sections not as additional rows, but as columns.

Can anybody give me ideas how to solve this problem?

Thanks.
 
You will need to re-format your report because that is exactly what Crystal is susposed to do. Actually since the data is all in the same section, it makes sense that all the fields should be on the same row of the exported file. Why did you put the data in several details sections?

Our Grid User Function Library was designed to solved exactly this problem.

Install the UFL, and then use formulas to create a work area, and you can then place any value in any row or column cell you want.

Then in a footer section, write the grid back to a disk file with any delimiter you require.

Trial version for 20 rows and 20 columns available from our web site.
