Saving as an Excel file, rules as shown

Sometimes it is helpful, e.g. in order to prepare or support a meeting, not to present the whole decision table, but only a small set of rules out of it. Similar to a screen print (screenshot, hard copy).

This can be done with LF‑ET as follows:

  1. Put the rules in the main screen exactly as they should be displayed: hide unnecessary rules, sort the rules as you like.

  2. Select Save as from the File menu or click 01 in the icon bar.

  3. Then select the file format in the open Save dialog: Excel files, Rules as shown (Ras).

Since the rules are probably not displayed in the standard sorting, it is recommended to activate rule ID display in advance (Menu bar > Window > Display ID).
