I'm reposting this because I have no answers yet... my previous two posts
follow:
The matrix is inside a list (of course). When the matrix grows, the list
also grows. But the matrix fits the page, the list shoots onto the next
page. Even though the list is supposed to be the same size as the matrix.
The only way to get rid of the blank page is to shrink the matrix so that it
only fills 3/4 of the page or something. That's no good when you are trying
to develop a report. You end up with a tiny font and a whole bunch of
whitespace.
I would love a fix for the Excel issue, too.
