SSRS doesn't honor the CanGrow Property when Exporting to Excel

Question

I have a Table in an SSRS report. one of the Table Cells contains the Descriptions of Parts in an order. these descriptions could vary in length and for that reson i have set the "CanGrow" Property to True. when i try to export the report to Excel im expecting that if the text length would exceed the width of the Cell then the height of the cell would grow and the whole text would be shown. Unfortunately the SSRS Excel Generator keeps the height as is and so only the part of the text which fits the width of the cell would be shown.

i would appreciate any help or input to solve this problem. Thanks

Answer 1

I've found that instead of removing any elements before the tablix, you can change their width to match that of the page.

Answer 2

I found the solution of the same problem! :) Set the "CanGrow" Property to False for all cells from one row. And also set the "Height" Property to your specific size.
