Export simple view to a MS Word Table

I have a simple vew with colums of data -- nothing special.  Would like to export the view into a Microsoft Word Table -- headings should be the same as my view column names. Also would need the paper in landscape mode.  Is this possible?

doninja,

I have R8.5x and didn't know of that feature.  Just tried it...works pretty good.  Would like to have a button with code -- for other users, but if no one else responds, this will have to do.
Hi AliciaVee,



You can create a toolbar icon with

@Command([CopySelectedAsTable]) for the first one

and

@Command([FileExport];"Comma Separated Value";"C:\\testing.txt") for the second one - just change the path to wherever you would like the file to end up. To create toolbar buttons go to File -> Preferences -> Toolbar -> Customize, make sure the Universal toolbar is selected an click on New. (Universal means that the button is always visible to the user).
I winded up using the "copy as table" option in Notes, so thanks for letting me know this now exits in version 8.x
