Introduction

The need to get business data from a SQL Server database (or any other kind of RDBMS for that matter) into Excel for further analysis is universal. I would venture to say that anyone in any business role from marketer to analyst to salesperson to executive to program manager has had the occasion to say: "I need this data in Excel so that I can crunch it!"

Introduction

In previous blog posts, I showed how José and Jillian, salespersons with PostOne Bicycles, used the new %%group marker to group and nest hierarchical data from a flat data set. In this tutorial, they will expand upon the concept by introducing headers to help separate each group, using the %%value() marker to show data values in headers and the (hide) modifier to hide data that is already shown in a header.

Starting in version 7.1 of ExcelWriter, you can use grouping and nesting markers to display flat data in a grouped and nested format using the ExcelTemplate object and a OOXML (.xlsx) template.
