Hi,<br />
<br />
&nbsp; My report has a main and sub reports. Main report displays the detail and the subreport displays the summary. Only either summary or detail shows up at any time on the report.<br />
&nbsp;I have a suppress logic to that effect.<br />
&nbsp;I have arranged each field to be without any gaps.<br />
But when i export to excel, the main report has some scale breaks. <br />
Example, a field occupies 3 columns in the excel spreadsheet, making it difficult for the users to filter. I have realized that this is because of the columns in the subreport, which are laid out around those cells.<br />
<br />
Why should a suppressed subreport have an impact on the columns of the main report?<br />
Is there a way to fix it?<br />
I'm attaching the report (without any data)<br />
Please help.<br />

Hi,

  My report has a main and sub reports. Main report displays the detail and the subreport displays the summary. Only either summary or detail shows up at any time on the report.
 I have a suppress logic to that effect.
 I have arranged each field to be without any gaps.
But when i export to excel, the main report has some scale breaks. 
Example, a field occupies 3 columns in the excel spreadsheet, making it difficult for the users to filter. I have realized that this is because of the columns in the subreport, which are laid out around those cells.

Why should a suppressed subreport have an impact on the columns of the main report?
Is there a way to fix it?
I'm attaching the report (without any data)
Please help.

Header scales from Main and Sub reports overlapping

Crystal Reports is a business intelligence application from SAP SE. It is used to graphically design data connections and report layouts from a wide range of data sources including Excel spreadsheets, Oracle, SQL Server databases and Access databases, BusinessObjects Enterprise business views, and local file-system information. Report designers can place fields from these sources on the report design surface, and can also deploy them in custom formulas (using either BASIC or Crystal's own syntax), which are then placed on the design surface. Crystal Reports also supports subreports, graphing, and a limited amount of GIS functionality.
