Send To options

You can send a copy of a chart, dashboard, some dashboard controls, or a desktop to a program or application you select, or the display values (text only) to a program or application you select, or you can save it as a file. You can also send an image of a chart (or data values for statistics lists and tables) to a PowerPoint presentation.

Send To options only display in the menu when you have an item such as a chart open on the GainSeeker Charts window.

Note: To send an item to Microsoft PowerPoint, Word, or Excel, these programs must be installed on your workstation.

Some of the Send to options listed here are not available for all GainSeeker Charts items.

Send Control to...

Allows you to send a dashboard control (some types) to the Clipboard, an Application, Email, Word (or a text editor such as Notepad), PowerPoint, Excel, or Save as [a] a file. Options may vary depending on the type of dashboard control.

Send to Application...

Allows you to save the file as an image, *.htm, or *.rtf file, then send the file to a program or an executable file.

Send to Clipboard

Sends an image of the chart, dashboard, or desktop to the clipboard, which you can paste into some other applications such as Microsoft Word.

Send to Email...

Allows you to send an email containing an image of the chart, dashboard, or desktop along with a text file detailing the data.

Send to HTML

Sends an image of the chart, dashboard, or dashboard control to your default browser.

Send to Excel...

Sends data from a data table or statistics list to Microsoft Excel, which opens a spreadsheet containing that information. If you have a chart open and select this option, the statistics report and group information for that chart will open in an Excel spreadsheet.

Note: Microsoft Excel must be installed on your workstation for this to work.

Send to PowerPoint

Sends an image of a chart, dashboard, or desktop images to Microsoft PowerPoint. (For statistic lists and tables, data text is sent to PowerPoint.) Then, the image automatically opens on a PowerPoint presentation slide as part of a new presentation.

Note: Microsoft PowerPoint must be installed on your workstation for this to work.

Save As File...

Allows you to save the selected window contents to an image, *.rtf, or *.htm file.

Send data to Excel...

Sends specific or all columns you select from the data table behind a chart to Microsoft Excel. An Excel spreadsheet then opens containing that chart information.

Note: Microsoft Excel must be installed on your workstation for this to work.

Word...

Opens an image or a text file of the contents of a selected window (a chart or dashboard, or all items on a desktop) in a Microsoft Word document. If you do not have Word installed on your workstation, GainSeeker sends it to the WordPad program installed with your Windows operating system.
