We export from out web-based app to either Excel or pdf.
One of our reports exports perfectly to PDF but has problems
with sizing cells in XL. Any row that is just a label, one label per frame is sized correctly, always, into one merged cell taking up the space of several detail row cells. But if I try to put dynamic text variable on the page, it gets squeezed down to the column width of the detail rows from earlier report sections above it. The dynamic variable needs to be 6 inches wide and the detail cells from the earlier report sections are 2"
How can I make sure that the Dynamic variable spans several cells so that the user doesn't have to do this?
