If a crosstab report would work that is the quickest. Other than that, I usually create mine using the borders on the fields, say you turn all the left borders on, and align the fields next to each other. The far right field you turn left and right borders on. Anyway, other than that, you can draw lines and extend them from top to bottom of the report, of course if your fields grow...... That's one reason I use crosstabs, or the field borders. Hope this helps.

Layout mode in Dreamweaver CS3. Can't draw table

I did the same exact thing i do in dreamweaver 8, but in cs3,
it's now working.
I went to layout mode and with a blank page and the draw
table button is grayed out.
what do i do to use it. I'm already in layout mode.

Get out of Layout mode for starters.
In my opinion, there are three serious problems with Layout
Mode -
1. Perhaps most importantly, it sits between you and *real*
HTML tables,
and fools you into believing that concepts like "layout cell"
and
"autostretch" really mean something. They do not. As long as
you use
Layout Mode, you'll never learn one of the most important
things for new web
developers - how to build solid and reliable tables.
2. Actually, #1 wouldn't be *so* bad, except that the code
that is written
by Layout Mode is really poor code. For example, a layout
table contains
MANY empty rows of cells. This can contribute to a table's
instability.
In addition, if your initial positioning of the table's cells
is a bit
complex,
Layout Mode will throw in col- and rowspans aplenty as it
merges and splits
cells willy-nillly to achieve the pixel-perfect layout you
have specified.
Again,
this is an extremely poor method for building stable tables,
because it
allows
changes in one tiny cell's shape (i.e, dimensions) to ripple
through the
rest
of the table, usually with unexpected and sometimes
disastrous consequences.
This is one of the primary reasons for the final result's
fragility - read
this -
http://apptools.com/rants/spans.php
3. The UI for Layout Mode is beyond confusing - many options
that you might
want to use are inaccessible, e.g., inserting another table,
or layer onto
the page.
I can understand the new user's desire to use this tool to
make their life
easier,
but the cost is just too heavy in my opinion.
To make good tables, keep it simple. Put a table on the page,
and begin to
load your content. If you would want a different table
layout, instead of
merging or splitting cells, consider stacking tables or
nesting simple
tables instead, respectively.
And above all, do not try to build the whole page with a
single table!
To read more about this approach, visit the DW FAQ link in my
sig, and run
through the table tutorials.

How to Draw table in SAPscript ???

Hi all Guru of SAPScript!
I want to draw a table with column and row in SAPscript. Who can help me step by step?
Thanks!
Edited by: kathy a on May 6, 2008 11:53 AM

Hi,
Use BOx Syantax How to Draw table in SAPscript ??? Pls Read the description
Syntax:
1. /: BOX [XPOS] [YPOS] [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [FRAME] [INTENSITY]
2. /: POSITION [XORIGIN] [YORIGIN] [WINDOW] [PAGE]
3. /: SIZE [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [WINDOW] [PAGE]
BOX
Syntax:
/: BOX [XPOS] [YPOS] [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [FRAME] [INTENSITY]
Effect: draws a box of the specified size at the specified position.
Parameters: For each parameter (XPOS, YPOS, WIDTH, HEIGHT and FRAME), both a measurement and a unit of measure must be specified. The INTENSITY parameter should be entered as a percentage between 0 and 100.
XPOS, YPOS: Upper left corner of the box, relative to the values of the POSITION command.
Default: Values specified in the POSITION command.
The following calculation is performed internally to determine the absolute output position of a box on the page:
X(abs) = XORIGIN + XPOS
Y(abs) = YORIGIN + YPOS
WIDTH: Width of the box.
Default: WIDTH value of the SIZE command.
HEIGHT: Height of the box.
Default: HEIGHT value of the SIZE command.
FRAME: Thickness of frame.
Default: 0 (no frame).
INTENSITY: Grayscale of box contents as %.
Default: 100 (full black)
Measurements: Decimal numbers must be specified as literal values (like ABAP/4 numeric constants) by being enclosed in inverted commas. The period should be used as the decimal point character. See also the examples listed below.
Units of measure: The following units of measure may be used:
TW (twip)
PT (point)
IN (inch)
MM (millimeter)
CM (centimeter)
LN (line)
CH (character).
The following conversion factors apply:
1 TW = 1/20 PT
1 PT = 1/72 IN
1 IN = 2.54 CM
1 CM = 10 MM
1 CH = height of a character relative to the CPI specification in the layout set header
1 LN = height of a line relative to the LPI specification in the layout set header
Examples:
/: BOX FRAME 10 TW
Draws a frame around the current window with a frame thickness of 10 TW (= 0.5 PT).
/: BOX INTENSITY 10
Fills the window background with shadowing having a gray scale of 10 %.
/: BOX HEIGHT 0 TW FRAME 10 TW
Draws a horizontal line across the complete top edge of the window.
/: BOX WIDTH 0 TW FRAME 10 TW
Draws a vertical line along the complete height of the left hand edge of the window.
/: BOX WIDTH '17.5' CM HEIGHT 1 CM FRAME 10 TW INTENSITY 15
/: BOX WIDTH '17.5' CM HEIGHT '13.5' CM FRAME 10 TW
/: BOX XPOS '10.0' CM WIDTH 0 TW HEIGHT '13.5' CM FRAME 10 TW
/: BOX XPOS '13.5' CM WIDTH 0 TW HEIGHT '13.5' CM FRAME 10 TW
Draws two rectangles and two lines to construct a table of three columns with a highlighted heading section.
POSITION
Syntax:
/: POSITION [XORIGIN] [YORIGIN] [WINDOW] [PAGE]
Effect: Sets the origin for the coordinate system used by the XPOS and YPOS parameters of the BOX command. When a window is first started the POSITION value is set to refer to the upper left corner of the window (default setting).
Parameters: If a parameter value does not have a leading sign, then its value is interpreted as an absolute value, in other words as a value which specifies an offset from the upper left corner of the output page. If a parameter value is specified with a leading sign, then the new value of the parameter is calculated relative to the old value. If one of the parameter specifications is missing, then no change is made to this parameter.
XORIGIN, YORIGIN: Origin of the coordinate system.
WINDOW: Sets the values for the left and upper edges to be the same of those of the current window (default setting).
PAGE: Sets the values for the left and upper edges to be the same as those of the current output page (XORIGIN = 0 cm, YORIGIN = 0 cm).
Examples:
/: POSITION WINDOW
Sets the origin for the coordinate system to the upper left corner of the window.
/: POSITION XORIGIN 2 CM YORIGIN '2.5 CM'
Sets the origin for the coordinate system to a point 2 cm from the left edge and 2.5 cm from the upper edge of the output page.
/: POSITION XORIGIN '-1.5' CM YORIGIN -1 CM
Shifts the origin for the coordinates 1.5 cm to the left and 1 cm up.
SIZE
Syntax:
/: SIZE [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [WINDOW] [PAGE]
Effect: Sets the values of the WIDTH and HEIGHT parameters used in the BOX command. When a window is first started the SIZE value is set to the same values as the window itself (default setting).
Parameters: If one of the parameter specifications is missing, then no change is made to the current value of this parameter. If a parameter value does not have a leading sign, then its value is interpreted as an absolute value. If a parameter value is specified with a leading sign, then the new value of the parameter is calculated relative to the old value.
WIDTH, HEIGHT: Dimensions of the rectangle or line.
WINDOW: Sets the values for the width and height to the values of the current window (default setting).
PAGE: Sets the values for the width and height to the values of the current output page.
Examples:
/: SIZE WINDOW
Sets WIDTH and HEIGHT to the current window dimensions.
/: SIZE WIDTH '3.5' CM HEIGHT '7.6' CM
Sets WIDTH to 3.5 cm and HEIGHT to 7.6 cm.
/: POSITION WINDOW
/: POSITION XORIGIN -20 TW YORIGIN -20 TW
/: SIZE WIDTH +40 TW HEIGHT +40 TW
/: BOX FRAME 10 TW
A frame is added to the current window. The edges of the frame extend beyond the edges of the window itself, so as to avoid obscuring the leading and trailing text characters.

Why is draw table empty after i import from memory id 'SAP_APPLICATION' ?

Hello,
I have the following
data draw like draw.

Drawing tables without boxes and lines in XI

Post Author: geeeeee
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Hi I'm trying to figure a way to draw tables in XI (it seems like a pretty simple task) but I can't find how to draw a table without hand drawing lines and boxes. Any ideas? Thanks

Hi,
Unfortunatelly drawing a frame for table is not so straightforward. To draw a frame around the columns and table itself you need to create a window (on top of window where you display your table) placing it at column position and checking Lines width in Output Options tab for this window. This will produce a fake column frame. See [this example|http://img294.imageshack.us/my.php?image=tableq.png].
For rows you could do similar: check what is the heihgt of row in the table and draw respective windows as rows. This one, however will look a bit strange, but for columns it looks and works fine.

Drawing Table & Displaying Data in SAP Script : Data Alignment probelm

Hi Experts,
I am Developing An SAP Script in Which Had to Display Data in a Table with Three column & multiple rows, i had created the Table using BOX Command in SAP SCRIPT & assigned a TEXT Element to it & calling this text element while Looping in WRITE_FORM FM.but while displaying DATA in One column the data in another columns shift to the right & if the data in 1st column is less the data in the second column shift to the left. i know these issues had been covered in the past but i am not getting any concrete results from searching in the forum.
Also On more problem when ever i am declaring a text element in some other window & also giving the Command BOX inside it to draw outline the BOX is not drawn.
This seem to be an alignment issue . Experts Please provide me with some alternative.
Thanks & Regards
Priyesh Shah

Hi ,
To stop columns going left and right.Use number of position in the variable .Like fix the lenght &name(10)&.Here name can print 10 characters.
For box not appearing in other window check the box command parameters .It will draw.Not a alignment problum.

Boxes, Lines, Shading: BOX, POSITION, SIZE
Use the BOX, POSITION, and SIZE commands for drawing boxes, lines, and shading to print particular windows within a form or passages of text within a window in a frame or with shading.
The SAP printer drivers that are based on page-oriented printers (the HP LaserJet driver HPL2, the Postscript driver POST, the Kyocera Prescribe driver PRES) employ these commands when printing. Line printers and page-oriented printers not supported in the standard ignore these commands. You can view the resulting printer output in the SAPscript print preview.

SAP-Script - Draw Table (Boxes) with variable number of lines

Hello,
I want to create a Table with Frames in a SAP-Script Form. First of all I don´t know the position of the table in the window main. It can be page 2 or 3 on top or in the middle. But i have to describe a position like
POSITION YORIGIN '12.95' CM. How can i position the table in a variable way?
And i don´t know the number of lines of the table. How can I manage to draw the correct numbers of boxes as numbers of lines exist?
Kind Regards

Hi carsten,
1. Drawing GRID (just like excel, matrix)
   is very cumbersome in sapscript layout.
(either dynamically, or hardcoded)
2. Moreover, the final look,
   may or maynot appear as requried,.
ie. exactly with proper alignment and grid lines.
3. If the font size is required to change,
then the dynamic position also changes.
4. If the grid is supposed to go to the next page,
again the calculation and logic becomes tougher.
5. To use grid, its better to use smartform,
   which provided FINE CONTROL of the grid
and its lines and width, height, style etc.
6. In sapsctip, at most we can use
   UNDERLINE (_) and PIPE (|)
regards,
amit m.

Drawing tables

I am quite new to DW Max and also do'nt know coding. I a retired person using computer as Hobby. I am creating a simple website. I want to draw separate tables side by side. Is it possible if yes, how?

Please do not use the 'draw a table' in layout mode... it will give you a false sense of security and will create a fragile page layout that will break.
I realise that you don't know any coding as yet, but it may be worthwhile learning a basic understanding of html and css before you begin your journey wtih Dreamweaver.
You can't really place two separate tables to sit side by side because there would be a tendency for one of the tables to 'fall below the other one' once you start inserting content. The important thing to remember about tables and cells is that the will shrink or expand depending on the content inside them.
I found this fairly simple table tutorial that may help you get started:
http://webmaster.appstate.edu/support/beginning_dw/tables.htm
You mention DW Max, not sure what version that is, unless you mean DWMX? It is a fairly old version by today's standards, and does have tools in the interface that you shouldn't really use - one of them being 'layout mode' - as explained above :-) Also, do not get drawn into using 'layers' - in the early version you were able to 'draw' these as well - stay well away from that!
On a side note - these days there is the tendency to move away from tables for layout purposes, and use CSS layouts instead - if you want to take a look at this type of layout.. here's a few tutorials that may help:
http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/css_concepts.html
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/table_to_css_pt1.html
Hope the above tutorial will get you going - if not, post back with any questions you may have.
