Actually, I'm looking for an export 2 and more tables in multiple Excel 
worksheets.
It possible? Thanks.

That code is no longer valid...I swapped that out a while back to use the 
generic
ExportTableFactory. I will get that documentation updated! I try to stay on top 
of
the documentation but as the API evolves sometimes things get missed.

Here is a code snippet from the TableFacadeImpl:

TableFactory tableFactory = new ExportTableFactory(getWebContext(), 
getCoreContext());
return tableFactory.createTable(columnProperties);

You get a Table back and then can manipulate it however you want. Also, you can 
pass
a different set of columnProperties for different exports (to either the facade 
or
the factory). 

What kind of functionality are you trying to get by using the factory directly?

BTW: one thing that would be really nice would be to get more builders like the
HtmlTableBuilder.

Thanks Jeff.
I was searching the Wiki if JMesa is able to export Tables into multiple Excel
sheets. I don't now if this is possibe.

Ok. I see now. JMesa can only export one table at a time. With a custom view you
could take one table and write to multiple worksheets. 

But I assume you want to export multiple tables on the same page? If so then you
could not do what you want out of the box.

That said...there is a chance you could still do this if you really needed it 
(Maybe). 

Are your tables in the same form? Would be willing to combine two worksheets
together? What I am wondering is if we could generate two separate worksheets 
and
then combine them together. It would not be a hack but it would require some 
custom
code (in your controller) to make it work.

If you are interested in trying this out I could send you more detailed
instructions...send me an email directly at jeff.johnston.mn@gmail.com.
