I am running CR 10 with sp6 and have a problem when exporting the report to Excel. I do NOT want the cell to grow so the option "Can grow" is not checked. But after exporting the report to Excel the cells grown to multiple lines. Anyone knows if this is a bug or if there is a fix/solution?

I don't export to Excel too often, but this is my guess....CR is exporting the data, you didn't truncate the data, you just told CR to not display everything, so it is exporting exactly the data 'displayed' on the report.  I realize that the entire field was not seen, but just because you couldn't see doesn't mean that it wasn't displayed.
 
I hope that you get the gist.
