Thanks, I will use this as a workaround, but at the same time put in a feature request to hide columns. Maybe it is possible to expand the group functionality to include a symbol that indicates the group should also be hidden on export? E.g. something like "|<< | | >", or any other symbol if double "<<" within one column is not easy to implement. Regards, -- Johnny
