    Wrong headings in excel file

    Instead of column heading, table field names are displayed in the excel file.
    Created a report and its works fine when it is saved in a pdf format. When saving it in an excel format files shows field names as column headings.

    Excel column names ARE field names. Same thing.

    Not sure I understand correctly, maybe give this a try.

    The report should be based on a query, not a table.
    In the query design view, you can alias the field names:

    first query column = Case id: caseid_out
    second query column = Pallet: pallet_out
    third query column = PO Number: ponumber_out
    etc......

    SQL view would look like:
    Code:
    SELECT caseid_out as [Case id], pallet_out as Pallet, ponumber_out as [PO Number], .....
