15. The Map Expense Report Options dialog (magenta section) has five fields where

you can specify the row and column on your template where header information
will be mapped.

Because header data is not related to any particular Section, you have to fill in only
one row. If the item does not display on your template, leave these cells blank.

Using Applications Other Than Microsoft Excel

You can use applications other than Microsoft Excel (such as Lotus 1-2-3 or Quattro Pro)
to open and manipulate the Expense data on your computer. The data file is named
“Expense.txt,” and is stored in the Expense folder, within the folder containing the SPT 1700
terminal user data.

Expense data in the Expense.txt file is in tab-delimited format.

Expense File Details

The Expense.txt file contains four groups of data. It is easier to see these four groups if you
open the file with a spreadsheet application.
