Neil,
What version are you using? Also can you try setting it using point or
inches? Is the report set to fixed layout?

Neil,
I think this may have been fixed in later versions of birt. Take a look
at the attached example. In the second column I went into the advanced
properties to set the width of the data item, then I set the width of
the column. I exported to xls and the proper width showed up in xls.
