How to arrange columns in cross tab

Hi,
I have 4 formulae that i need to put in as the columns in a cross tab.
I have added 4 of them in the column section of cross tab expert but when i preview ....it gives me total again and again and repeatetive columns, All i want to view is just 4 columns(for which i have created formula) and grand total column.
Is it possible.
Thanks,
Robinn

Wow Vinay,
That is so coooooooooool:)
This way i got rid of all the extra columns and extra labels that were appearing on the top.
With this another qs has come.
Now I am getting the column headers as 1094, 0.00,0.00,0.00 and the last one as total.
Is it possible to remove 1094,0.00,0.00,0.00 and get actula column headers ??
Thank you so much,
Robinn.

Add a new column to Cross tab.

Hi all,
I have a rtf template
Where I have a cross tab,
Product Code as row header and Month as column header(Jan,Feb,......Dec) and Quantity as measure.
I need to add Product name right beside the Product code column.. I am not sure how I do this in cross tab. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hope your vacation was good:)) Can we expect your effort now, when relaxed, on contributing here on SDN?;))
I don´t know I you know that you can easily drag something (a node) from your data view (what comes from the backend) and drop it onto your form layout. This way the editor will generate everything for you. That means, you shoud:
- delete the current table
- drag and drop the new one (if the context knows already a new field)
And that should be it. Like 10 seconds action. But you should probably copy your form and experiment with the copy.

How to count number of columns in cross-tab report

I have created a cross-tab report and have managed to get the data out as below:
             Jan     Feb     Mar....(display of months will auto expand) Avg/Mo Total
UserA     4          3        4                                                                         11
UserB     6          1        1                                                                          8
UserC     5          5        5                                                                         15
Total       15        9        10                                                                        33
I want to insert a calculated column (Avg/Mo) into the cross-tab report based on the formula: Total/Number of Months. I used this calculation formula for Avg.Mo column:
(GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, CurrentColumnIndex+1, CurrentSummaryIndex)/GetNumColumns)
However, I get the wrong average since GetNumColumns count the total number of columns including the column of Avg/Mo and Total.
How do i get the number of columns, excluding the Avg/Mo calculated column and Total column?
PS: I can't use hardcode since the number of months/columns will auto expand the months progress...

ok managed to solve this by slightly changing the formula:
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, CurrentColumnIndex+1, CurrentSummaryIndex)/(GetNumColumns-2)

Thanks and Regards,
Krishna PrasadIf you want a column padding (i.e., actual blank columns that separate your measures), then create dummy columns between the measures.
1) Click any column and in the fx enter CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN tablename.column_name END
This will create a blank column.
2) Put this in your pivot table, make 3 duplicate layers, and place them in between the 4 measure columns.
In effect, you will have the spaces which you can format to highlight the buffer columns.

Hiding a column in Cross tab

Dynamically color to each column in Cross-tab report

Hello All,
I am a newbie in Crystal report,from last few weeks, i am working on cross tab crystal report.i have a requirement to show color dynamically for each column.i am adding an attachment how i want it. i tried dynamic coloring using object field formula but it is showing red color to all data.i want red color data when in 2nd cross tab report data is beyond upper or lower limit in first cross tab table. it will be very helpful if somebody will give me any clue on this.... i read so many articles now it seem like impossible for me..:(
i am using visual studio 2010 and sap crystal report version 13.0.0.99 for visual studio 2010.

Hello Manish,
I have attached a sample report that does this. You will need to remove the .txt extension from the attached file to open it as an .rpt file.
Please right click on one of the value fields of the first cross tab in the report > Format Field > Common > Suppress if Duplicated conditional formula.
The nested formula is as follows;
numbervar array l;
numbervar array u;
numbervar x:=CurrentColumnIndex;
if GridRowColumnValue ('@limit') = 'lower limit' then
(redim preserve l[x];
l[x]:= tonumber(CurrentFieldValue))
else if GridRowColumnValue ('@limit') = 'upper limit' then
(redim preserve u[x];
u[x]:= tonumber(CurrentFieldValue));
false
So it assigns each lower and upper limit value for each client (in the sample it is country) to an array using the cross tabs column index to index the array and it ends in False as we don't actually want it to suppress if duplicated. This nested formula is just used to generate the arrays of upper and lower values.
In the second cross tab if you again right click on one of the value fields > Format Field > Font > Color you will see the following conditional formula;
numbervar array l;
numbervar array u;
numbervar x;
if not(tonumber(CurrentFieldValue) in l[CurrentColumnIndex] to u[CurrentColumnIndex]) then
crred
else
crblack
So this compaes the current field value to range generated by the 2 arrays and assigns a color based on whether or not it is in the range.

Graham

Creating a header for rows/columns in cross-tab with syntax

Hi,
The issue is creating strings for rows or columns' headers. How can I create a formula field which contains more than one seperate string. Such as "aaa", "bbb" and "ccc" are headers and they should be in seperate columns. In short, they will behave like characteristics of one of my query's field but they are just headers of the columns.
..............aaa...bbb...ccc....
row1.......x.......x........x.....
row2.......y.......y........y.....
Also there is another issue about the formulation again. Is there any operator that does the same job as " \n" which is used in C languages to break the line?
before:
aaabbb
after:
aaa
bbb

Hi Carl;
Firstly, thanks for answering my question. To explain my problem there are two options ahead(for my first question); first one is writing down the actions step by step, the second one is posting an image file(jpeg etc) to visualize it. I think the first one will be enough. If not tell me
Step 1- Create a cross-tab and right click and select cross-tab expert.
Step 2- Click the button "New Formula" and write down any word(such as "Sales") between two -"- sign to make it string.Then save and close.
Step 3- Drag and drop the created formula to "columns" section and fill the other necessary sections with your database's(such as xtreme.mdb which is famous for crystal users) fields.Don't forget to add another column value to "columns" section, since our formula has no link to database.
Step 4- Then click OK to save the changes and lets preview the cross-tab.The result will have one top column and his child or children(that depends on your data). And this top column is behaving like a header not a field.
Now turn the second step but write down a formula for 2 columns or more.For exmple "Sales" and "Profit".So the result will have 2 top columns and their child/children.
My question is "what is the formula for 2 or more columns?"
Also I couldn't get the answer for my second question. What is the meaning of expressions "\c" and ChrW(13)?

Hide Column in Cross Tab Report

Hi guys,
I have an issue with the Cross Tab in CR2008.
I'm using 2 columns to calculate an other column, but these 2 columns should not be displayed in the report.
I tried to suppress the column but it still shows a white space.
I tried to change the column width, but it cant get it smaller then 0,113.
Can anyone tell me how to set the column width smaller using a formula or how to suppress the whole column.
Thanks in advance.
William

Hi William,
Instead of using all 3 columns in the crosstab, just drop your main columnn on.
In the Design window, not the Crosstab Experrt, right-click the summary field and select Format Field.
In the Common Tab, open the formula for Display String.
Now you can take the value of your summary using the CurrentFieldValue and make your total. You may need to summarize the supporting numbers to calculate properly but it should work here properly.
I've used this for things like running totals and repeating values between rows.
NOTE: This formula only returns a string so make sure you format your final value as a string.
Good luck,
Brian

Additional columns in Cross tab

If I have Project name as the column and project count as the summary in a cross tab
for eg
ProjectA,ProjectB, ProjectC
3,             4,           5
CaN i add additional columns next to project C having some condition related to these projects and project counts and then get the grand total??
Thanks

Let's see... This is about the tenth time I've answered this question in the past few weeks, but, hay, let's do it again!
The only way I am aware of adding columns to a crosstab is by including new data in your database query. So, if you currently are returning the data
Project    Count
ProjectA   2
ProjectB   4
ProjectC   5
Than, probably using a database command for the data source, change it to return
Project    Count
ProjectA   2
ProjectB   4
ProjectC   5
Totals     11
How this is accomplished very much depends on your database tables and what additional columns you want to add to the crosstab.
HTH,
Carl

Too many columns in CROSS-Tab

Post Author: plm
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Hi,
I have created a cross-tab table that is supposed to return one column per value from a specific field. This specific field is not fixed and currently contains about 50 values (let's make them Col_1, Col_2,...,Col_50. Tomorrow, a user can create Col_51, calling it whatever he wants, and another user delete Col_3. In short, this is fairly dynamic, and the cross-tab is supposed to reflect these values and the data attached to it.
At the moment, Crsytal report XI returns has many columns as there are occurences in my column field. GREAT. How can I get 5 columns over 10 pages instead???
Thanks,
Philippe

Sorry, don't think you can. At least I have not been able to figure it out. If you have less rows than columns, you could try reversing it.
