How to get the plus/minus at the top when grouping

[Guest]

Hello,

I am grouping several rows in excel 2007 but want the plus/minus control to
be at the top of the group rather than the bottom. I am unable to figure
this out from within excel. When I export a report from SQL Server Reporting
Services to excel that has drill down, the plus/minus control is at the top
of the grouping.

Thanks for the help.

One way:

Choose Data/Group and Outline/Settings...

Uncheck the "Summary rows below detail" checkbox.

Thanks for the reply JE.

How do you get to: data/group and outline/settings? I couldn't find it when
i went to the circle (top left) > Excel Options. Nor is there a setting
option in the Outling group of the ribbon.

Thanks,
Beac

Whoops, missed the XL07. Don't have a copy handy right now. I'd say
search Help, but I don't know that it would do any good...
