Hi Kundal,

In case if you have to print, I would suggest you to develop the application to be printed in PDF format, u can use WD, WDA with adobe or us can use the trird party open source apps to build PDF applications.

For excel there are lot of wikis and blogs available and also u can use the 3rd party tools here like Apache HSSF etc.

Hi,

Printing from Web Dynpro for Java is only supported from NWCE and 7.2 onwards, if I remember correctly

See http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW73/SPS01/CE/wdr/com.sap.wdr/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/clientserver/print/a... for more info

However, you could recreate your table using html/jsp, and open the rendered JSP in a popup. This way you should be able to use javascript print function, see /people/sap.user72/blog/2006/05/04/enhancing-tables-in-webdynpro-java-150-custom-built-table-utilities

As for exporting your context data to Excel, have a look at this article
