Hi there


Would appreciate your help with background colouring.

I have a report and I'm using background colours for header, totals and footer rows. When exporting my report to excel the background colour on those rows never ends. I would like the background colour to finish on the last column, is there anyway I can do it?

Please help

Thank you Barb

The only way to do this would be to color the individual text objects in the rows instead of the rows in the report.  Then, to get the continuous color across, you would have to make sure that the left of each object starts at the end of the previous object (I usually use the guides on the ruler at the top of the page to do this.)
