How to reproduce: public partial class Form1 : Form { public Form1() { InitializeComponent(); } private void Form1_MouseDoubleClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { PivotGridSpreadExport spreadExport = new PivotGridSpreadExport(this.radPivotGrid1); spreadExport.RunExport(@"..\..\exported-file.xlsx", new SpreadExportRenderer()); } private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.productsTableAdapter.Fill(this.nwindDataSet.Products); LocalDataSourceProvider dataProvider = new LocalDataSourceProvider(); dataProvider.ItemsSource = nwindDataSet.Products; dataProvider.BeginInit(); dataProvider.RowGroupDescriptions.Add(new PropertyGroupDescription() { PropertyName = "CategoryID", GroupComparer = new GroupNameComparer() }); dataProvider.AggregateDescriptions.Add(new PropertyAggregateDescription() { PropertyName = "UnitPrice", AggregateFunction = AggregateFunctions.Sum }); dataProvider.EndInit(); this.radPivotGrid1.DataProvider = dataProvider; } } Workaround: create a custom pivot grid export object public partial class Form1 : Form { public Form1() { InitializeComponent(); } private void Form1_MouseDoubleClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { MyPivotGridSpreadExport spreadExport = new MyPivotGridSpreadExport(this.radPivotGrid1); spreadExport.RunExport(@"..\..\exported-file.xlsx", new SpreadExportRenderer()); } private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.productsTableAdapter.Fill(this.nwindDataSet.Products); LocalDataSourceProvider dataProvider = new LocalDataSourceProvider(); dataProvider.ItemsSource = nwindDataSet.Products; dataProvider.BeginInit(); dataProvider.RowGroupDescriptions.Add(new PropertyGroupDescription() { PropertyName = "CategoryID", GroupComparer = new GroupNameComparer() }); dataProvider.AggregateDescriptions.Add(new PropertyAggregateDescription() { PropertyName = "UnitPrice", AggregateFunction = AggregateFunctions.Sum }); dataProvider.EndInit(); this.radPivotGrid1.DataProvider = dataProvider; } } public class MyPivotGridSpreadExport : PivotGridSpreadExport { public MyPivotGridSpreadExport(RadPivotGrid pivotGrid) : base(pivotGrid) { } public override void Initialize() { base.Initialize(); RadPivotGridElement pivotGrid = this.GetType().BaseType.GetField("pivotGrid", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic).GetValue(this) as RadPivotGridElement; List<int> rowHeights = this.GetType().BaseType.GetField("rowHeights", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic).GetValue(this) as List<int>; List<DescriptionBase> columnDescriptions = this.GetType().BaseType.GetField("columnDescriptions", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic).GetValue(this) as List<DescriptionBase>; if (columnDescriptions.Count == 0) { rowHeights.Add(pivotGrid.RowHeight); columnDescriptions.Add(null); } } }
