Hi I am having an issue with a cross tab - I have spacing I can't get rid of and it messes up excel when I export. If you look at the photos you will see my settings and the area I am talking about. Any idea how to get rid of the space I show in the 2nd photo marked in red?? Thanks

This pic shows the spacing I can’t get rid of.

If those don't show here are the links

In cross tab expert go to the customise tab and Uncheck Show cell margins.

Report preview is not very neat but export to excel is much better

It looks like the problem is that your fourth row field is null in some cases for a particular third row value. You could try replacing your third row field with a formula like this:

if not isnull({table.fourthrowfield}) then
{table.thirdrowfield}

Go into the "Customize Style" tab and highlight the third group on the left (row fields) Then check the 'suppress subtotals'. It might be that you have to do this on the 4th row field.
