3. Use the CustomizePivotCellEventArgs.Formatting property to specify the cell’s appearance settings.
4. Use the CustomizePivotCellEventArgs.ValueItemInfo property to specify the field to which the customized cell belongs.

          e.Handled = true;
      }

void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) {
    PivotGridXlsExportOptions op = new PivotGridXlsExportOptions();

    pivorGrid1.ExportToXls(file, op);
