I found something strange with column titles in one report I tried to migrate to EXL07 output.
I managed to reproduce it with a CAR example.

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM  DEALER_COST 
OVER RETAIL_COST 
OVER SALES       
BY   COUNTRY     
ACROSS BODYTYPE  
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT EXL07
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=ACROSSVALUE,   BACKCOLOR=RGB(255 255 255),        $
ENDSTYLE
END


With OVER the measures become separate rows and the column titles are placed in a separate 'title column'. But with EXL07 it also keeps the column titles which is not correct.
In HTML or EXL2K this does not happen.

It seems it has to do with the backcolor styling of the acrossvalue. If I remove that styling it works okay again.

Is this a bug or am I overlooking something?

Martin.

I tried this v7.7.05 and, colour wise, the two Excel documents look the same.
