When I run a PROC REPORT in ODS tagsets.ExcelXP using aTitle statements, the Row Height of a Title statement that contains a date will get quite large.  Here is my code:

When the file is opened in Excel, the row height that has the Title3 statement is 198.  How do I get this row to a more reasonable height?  Note: If I remove the dates, the row height becomes normal.  The dates can seemingly be in any format (mm/dd/yyyy, ddmmmyyyy, January 1, 2001).

Help!!

Hi:

  There is a ROW_HEIGHTS suboption that allows you to specifically provide a row height for the title. If you use doc='Help' as a suboption, you will be able to see the current list of suboptions.

  However, when I run a version of your code (same title statements and suboptions, different data), I do not observe what you describe (see screen shot -- my row height for TITLE3 is set at 18, not 198) -- perhaps it would be better to open a track with Tech Support on this issue.

I agree with the sender that   something is not working  (under excel2010 from sas 9.2.3  latest tagset )

with the same code -title and options- with a proc print    see result image

and it is coming from any content that approach from a date  even if you withdraw : or

put spaces between  / or -  in the text of the title3

follow up

and changing

Row_Heights           = '0,0,0,10,0,0,0'

        autofit_height        = 'no

changes nothing'

Hi:

  I was running the same version of SAS (9.2.3) and Excel 2010. That's why I recommended opening a track with Tech Support. They can determine whether it is a SAS issue or not and if the tagset template needs to change, they can work with the developers to get a fix started.

Thanks for the replies.  Based on Cynthia's original reply, I have opened a Track with Tech Support.

FWIW: We have SAS 9.2 M3 installed on a Windows 2008 x64 server.  We currently run Office 2003.

I have been playing with the ROW_HEIGHT option along with AUTOFIT_HEIGHT on/off.  There doesn't seem to be any combination that will give me good row heights.

Andre, I'm glad (sort of) that you also got the same result as me.  At least I know it's not just me!!

Cynthia--

Was this ever resolved?  I'm having the same issue.

Thanks.

Hi:

  I never experienced the issue -- see my screen shot in the post above. That's why I recommended opening a track with Tech Support. If you are having the same issue, then I recommend working with Tech Support. They can look at previous tracks and involve the developers, if this is an intermittent bug or related to a style template or ??? Also, they can write a Tech Support note, if warranted.

  To send a question to Tech Support, go to http://support.sas.com/ and in the left-hand navigation pane, click on the link entitled "Submit a Problem". Alternately, you can go directly to the Tech Support Problem Form here:

I had the same problem with the title row height issue, but it was resolved when I replaced the ExcelXP tagset with the latest version (v1.127, dated 9/26/11).

For the record, I'm running SAS v9.2 on SunOS and was using Excel 2007.
