Hi, I'm using JasperReports Server v.5.5.0 at my job and I'm creating a report that will be exported to Excel format. The customer that I'm creating the report for doesn't want the title to be shown in only one, long, merged column (in Excel). So how could I make it span across multiple columns when exporting to Excel? I've googled a bit and I found the parameter: cnet.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.column.width and its description here: http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/config.reference.html#net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.column.width but I still don't know how to use it. If this property could solve the problem, I would like to know exactly where and how to put it in the jrxml source file. I've tried to find an answer to this, but I haven't found one. Also, I don't want some property that changes the column width of All columns in the report (when exported to Excel), just something that affects the title. /Ylva
