I edited this in Pivot Tables to:
Number of items in arrears |

Valid | 0 | 77.1 |
1 | 8.4 |
2 | 5.5 |
3 | 4.1 |

6 | 0.8 |
7 | 0.6 |
8 | 0.2 |
9 | 0.1 |
10 | 0.0 |
11 | 0.0 |
13 | 0.0 |
N = 100% | 12097 |
After further editing of the (hidden) border between the label and the items to narrow the column and hide "Valid" all I get when copying to Word or Outlookis:
