Thanks 4 U answer Pratik, in your way u can put the desired columns on the line, but i can´t (at least in my release) chage the length of the line. I must fit the report entrie line and the table length.

Thaks a lot.

yeah i got ur point..you try this

line 1

_______________________________________

I 1ST I 2ND I 3RD I

line 2 you got the entire table width but last column

doesnt have the upper frame, left frame and lower

frame(cell boundaries). So in the output its

not visible( the dotted cell on extreme right)

So at the output line 2 looks like

_________________________

I 1ST I 2ND I 3RD

Is this your problem that you need to fit your table length in main window and fix your text in it???

Hi,

Else try this way....

Print the title in a template with the desired line width and the body in a table positioned just below the template with the other line width.

I believe the title would have fixed no of rows....

Hi,

Try to create another table with the TITLE linetype with different pattern and line width in a separate window and overlap the window exactly over the table with data.

Its tough but try this way.

we had a similar issue and we had solved this way to overlap two tables of the same size in different windows positioned exactly at the same location ...one with data and the other one without data.

Table is one where you cannot size your height. It is dynamic.

It is dynamic and increases itself when the text maintained inside its line-> cell.

First try to insert your required text in it and see in print preview how it behaves.

For this create a table line->and row are created then insert text element for this line.

Insert in same way for both of your different style text in respective lines.

Check in print preview how it behaves.

Otherwise

just below the table create a template which is exactly of same cloumns/cells as table has.

Here in template it is static and u may increase or decrease line size.

Hope this helps u.
