Cross tab --> Excel Bug?

[Hubajube]

I have a report that uses a Cross Tab with a date column. I have customized the Group Name by using a formula to display mm/dd. It looks fine in the preview, but when I export to Excel I get gibberish, stuff like this:

Xh%
fh%
mh%
{h%
‚h%
h%

I don't see this bug reported on Crystal. Anyone else encountered this?

Perhaps if you install the latest patch it will disappear, I haven't experienced this.

What version of Crystal are you using? In 8.5, at least, you have <Column width based on objects in area> within <Format Options>. I had nothing like your problem, but I did get improved results by using the detail line rather than thr group header, which was the default Madawc Williams
