Is it possible to create a table in MicroStation CONNECT and export that table into Excel?
I am aware of being able to import Excel into MicroStation, but not vice versa.
Thanks!

That's exactly what should be shared in the original post, because it makes the question and context much clearer :-)

When the table has no data source (e.g. report), I think it's not possible to export it to external format.
I do not know, but maybe the enhancement mentioned by Karan targets this functionality.

Karan,
Do you know if enhancement 1098563 targets the functionality in question?
Thanks
Yes. It does target the said functionality. Enhancement 1098563:Use Table element to create an Excel file - Export Table to Excel
When do you think that enhancement would be made available? My company would heavily rely on that feature so I'd like to know a timeline to decide if I should spend time exploring more complicated options to achieve this.

I think there are not many alternative options available. What should work is to access table using own application, as far as I know, both C++ and NET APIs provide access to table element.
