Convert RPT to EXC

Understanding rpt and exc file formats

RPT files are report files commonly generated by applications such as Crystal Reports, SQL Server Reporting Services, or other reporting tools. These files typically contain formatted data, charts, and summaries, and are used for sharing or printing reports.

EXC is not a standard file format. It is often a mistaken reference to XLS or XLSX, which are Microsoft Excel spreadsheet formats. For the purpose of this conversion, we will assume you want to convert RPT files to XLS/XLSX (Excel) files.
