Hi Chandran,

Use get/set method to copy the values from table to pdf. if your using same node for both table and pdf do context binding through controller. so pdf will have the data from table through controller. i hope this will solve your problem

hi Chandran

The way to display a table of information in a PDF is to use the Subform UI element in the interactive form. Place a subform within subform. Keep the properties of the first subform as :

type: flowcontent

flow direction: Table

second subform as:

type: flowcontent

flow direction: Table Row

Uncheck the checkbox min count.

Tick the check box "repeat subform for each data item."

remember to attach the pdfsource to a 1...n node and have a sub node in which the table data is present. Drag the value node which has table data to the subform 2 and it will form the UI. At runtime the data will appear there,.

For more detailed information use this document:

I am not sure which version is as you describe. I am using WAS 7.0 sp9.

Intuition tells me select followed, yes the form will be made into a thin single line. Add another subform into this.

Theres a view called Heirarchy view which will show you a list of UI elements in the form. Use that add the subform 2 to existing subform 1.

In the menu go to "palettes" and choose heirarchy. Then follow as in the document.

Hi Chandran,

I have one node called "DataSource", which is bound to the table in a view. I have another node called "DataSource" in controller too. These two nodes have context binding. so i can use the "DataSource" in view on table in pdf. here i use

...

wdContext.CurrentDataSourceElement().getName(wdContext.CurrentDataSourceElement().setName) in pdf.

the above set/get method copy the data from one node to another. then you will have a copy.

i hope it will work for u
