Multiple Tables Conversions
When a layout has more then one table, you can select whether to convert those tables into a single Excel sheet - in which case, the tables will appear one after the other, once for every page - or each into an Excel sheet of its own.
This option can be set using the Convert into multiple sheets check box in the Conversion Settings Page.
Note that setting this option also effects the Conversion Preview Area display.
The name of the table will appear above it in case of conversion to a single sheet, or as the name of the sheet when converting to multiple sheets.
Table names can be set using the Edit Table Title command from the Table menu, or via the Paste Here command from the Context menu.
Note that the output of tables with the same name is combined by the conversion process, so the data from all of them will appear consecutively in the same sheet (or under the same name, when converting into a single sheet).
Unnamed tables will automatically be converted into different sheets or table outputs.
Consider the following sample:
