one matrix above another doesn't export properly to Excel

A newb question: I've got a report with a table leftmost in the body,
with a matrix immediately to the right of the table. Immediately
below the table are 2 textboxes displaying totals from the table.
Immediately below the first matrix is another matrix displaying totals
from the first matrix:
Table Matrix1
Textboxes Matrix2
All is well in preview, HTML view, and PDF export.
After Excel export, the sheet is arranged thus:
Table Matrix1
Matrix2 Textboxes
I've tried putting the 2 matrices in a rectangle, and even inside
nested rectangles, with no effect on the incorrect Excel layout.
The report is designed this way because the users want empty space
between the detail data (in the Table and Matrix1) and the totals.
The number of columns in Matrix 1 is dynamic and so I need Matrix2 to
expand in step with Matrix1.
I think. Help? RDL available if anybody wants it.
Thanks
MatrixLoverI am running into similar problem. I have one matrix over another and report
logic hide / unhide matrix. Every work like charm in reports, export to pdf,
but having trouble in excel export. When export to excel, the hidden matrix
also appears just below the active matrix. Any help appreciated.
