a great project and an excellent work, even the text diagonally .... I thought that it was enough to turn the paper by 45° into the printer...... 😉

Hi Ivan,
I am very interested in abap2xlsx. However, I found that I cannot access to code exchange? How can I get the permission? Thanks.
You can find it on github now: ivanfemia/abap2xlsx · GitHub

Code exchange is no longer available, it has been dismissed by SAP more than an year ago.
