Hi,
I'm using SQL Server Reporting Services to produce reports, i'm then exporting the reports to excel, only I've run into a known problem with excel, Merged cells and wraped text dont mix together very well in excel - the row height is not preserved. Ive found a fix posted in this group posted by Jim Rech in 2002 (http://groups.google.com/group/micro...l.programming/ browse_thread/thread/a5cbe0ee8e6c2a10/93c6bca447bd8902? #93c6bca447bd8902) in the form of a macro, the macro adjusts row height for a selected cell so that its contents fits. however, this macro is designed to work only on a single selected cell. being a complete excell macro/vba noob, I'm hoping someone out there can help me fix this macro so that it scans every cell/merged cell in a worksheet and adjusts the row height to fit its contents. Here is the macro created by Jim Rech ''Simulates row height autofit for a merged cell if the active cell.. '' is merged. '' has Wrap Text set. '' includes only 1 row. ''Unlike real autosizing the macro only increases row height '' (if needed). It does not reduce row height because another '' merged cell on the same row may needed a greater height '' than the active cell. Sub AutoFitMergedCellRowHeight() Dim CurrentRowHeight As Single, MergedCellRgWidth As Single Dim CurrCell As Range Dim ActiveCellWidth As Single, PossNewRowHeight As Single If ActiveCell.MergeCells Then With ActiveCell.MergeArea If .Rows.Count = 1 And .WrapText = True Then Application.ScreenUpdating = False CurrentRowHeight = .RowHeight ActiveCellWidth = ActiveCell.ColumnWidth For Each CurrCell In Selection MergedCellRgWidth = CurrCell.ColumnWidth + MergedCellRgWidth Next .MergeCells = False .Cells(1).ColumnWidth = MergedCellRgWidth .EntireRow.AutoFit PossNewRowHeight = .RowHeight .Cells(1).ColumnWidth = ActiveCellWidth .MergeCells = True .RowHeight = IIf(CurrentRowHeight PossNewRowHeight, _ CurrentRowHeight, PossNewRowHeight) End If End With End If End Sub Thanks in advance for any assistance.

If you have more than one merged cell in a column what do you want to do?

Hi Joel,
I'm not exactly sure I follow your question, but I'll take a stab at answering it anyway. I do not expect to have any cells merged between rows. I do expect there to be a number of columns which will have merged cells. I do expect to have merged and single cells in any given column. I hope this helps to answer your question and thanks for your assistance, Regards Dan On Jan 14, 2:16*pm, Joel wrote: If you have more than one merged cell in a column what do you want to do?

Hi Joel, Maybe I should try to explain what or how I expect the macro
to function. I'd like the macro to look for word wrapped and merged cells in a worksheet, once it finds a cell with both criteria, id like it to increase the height of the row to fit the selected cells contents and progress to the next cell, continuing until it cant find any more word wrapped and merged cells in the row, then repeat its search on the next row. Thanks again for your assistance. Regards Dan On Jan 14, 3:07*pm, wrote: Hi Joel, I'm not exactly sure I follow your question, but I'll take a stab at answering it anyway.

I should of said two sets of merged columns in the same row. A macro
searching all the cells for merged cells will adjust for one colun and then re-adjust for the 2nd column in the same row which will un-adjust the 1st column.

Hi Joel,
I only need the maco to increase the row height, This would avoid the problem you mention.
