Hi, I need to export a view page into a word document exactly how it looks in the view page.
I've heavily customized the view page with the editor.
I need some guidance on how to do this. Whether by export page or by a button on the view page.

I had a similar need for this a few months ago and I got my Word Export to work perfectly. Take a look at this post; http://www.asprunner.com/forums/topic/14153-export-to-word-with-carriage-or-paragraph-returns/pagehlexportfromsearch1
Although, I don't think the answer is entirely there.... I thought I added my solution to the tips & tricks section but it seems I didn't.
If I have time, I'll go ahead and post the solution there. Bottom line is I remember having to tweak the "yourtablename_export.php" that was generated in the output directory of my project. Then whenever I rebuilt my project I would always paste this tweaked file over the recently built version that was generated by PHPRunner... the reason was because I needed the form letters to have page breaks, which unfortunately was not a available via the standard export feature of PHPRunner.
Good luck,
