How to dynamically set width of SSRS columns in custom code?

How can I change the width of a table column based on a parameter value using custom code in SSRS?
If the parameter value is "Excel", I'd like the width to be 2 inches. If the parameter value is "Standard", I'd like the width to be 1 inch.

Hi mmx_pdx,
Based on my research, we can only type static values for the width size in report. In Reporting Services, it not supported to set the size of width based on an expression currently. This is by design.
Personally, I recommend you that submit this suggestion at
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/. If the suggestion mentioned by customers for many times, the product team may consider to add the feature in the next SQL Server version. Your feedback is valuable for us to improve our products and increase the
level of service provided.
Thanks for your understanding.

How to dynamically set connection string for report in C# code?

Hi,
I have installed CRVS2010. I have created new Crystal Report WPF Application and new report. I would like to set connection string for report in code dynamically.
Is this possible?
Thanks
Ivana

Lots of posts in this forum on how to set database connections. WPF should not be a consideration as it's just a viewer. The report engine is still the same. Search these forums. Use the search box at the top right corner of this page. Look at samples here:
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsfor.NETSDK+Samples
Note that none of the samples above are using WPF, but like I said, the WPF is just a different viewer and will not impact how the report engine logs on to a database. (I think of it as a gray car vs. a red car. Same engine, just the color is different)

May be a rude way .. but it works.
Add narrative view and use Java script to change the column headings based on the variables.
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
var a = document.getElementById('idResultsTableParent');
var rows= a.getElementsByTagName('tr');
rows[1].cells[1].innerText ="@{Presentation Variable}";
</script>

How to change the width of a column in the web templete

hai
can anyone pl help me to solve the issue
here is the issue
" how to change the width of the column in web templete?" is there any chance to change
thanx in advance
syam

First use the Active Cell property and set the row value to -2 to change an entire column. The attached image shows how to set the background color of column 3 to green. I don't understand your comment about column size. It doesn't matter how wide or narrow a column is. Using the Cell Background Color property, the entire cell is colored. If you are having difficulty keeping track of the number of columns, thats a different issue.

How do I set the number of columns for JTextPane

I only found a method setSize() of JTextPane class. How can I set the number of columns in a JTextPane? Each column can be written one letter.
Thanks.

You're not going to use FontMetrics to change the width of the characters; you're going to use it figure out how wide a single character is. Then multiply by the number of characters you want to have in a line, and presto! You know how wide to make your JTextPane.
Unless I've misunderstood your problem, of course.

Set Width for a column, Merge cells in Excel

Hi all,
I am using jacob.dll to open and modify an Excel file. And I am stucking in below trouble:

          Dispatch.Method,
          new Object[]"D:\\02042005.xls",
          new Variant(false), new Variant(false)},
          new int[1] ).toDispatch();
Dispatch sheet = Dispatch.get(workbook,"ActiveSheet").toDispatch();
System.out.print(sheet.get(sheet,"Name") + "\n");
Dispatch a1 = Dispatch.invoke(sheet, "Columns",
          Dispatch.Get,new Object[] {"A:A"},
          new int[1]).toDispatch();
Dispatch.put(a1,"Width","8");
Error message is that I can not set value Width for object RANGE! so strange... Is there any ways to set Width for a certain column?
Any help is appreciated.

Hi all,
:) At last I can work done with Jacob, so great :) take me all yesterday to find more... just hope this post can help someone like me save one day to find how :)
//Get Range
Dispatch orange = Dispatch.invoke(osheet,"Range",Dispatch.Get,new Object[]{"A1:I1"},new int[1]).toDispatch();
//Get Column I & set Width
ocolumn = Dispatch.invoke(orange,"EntireColumn",Dispatch.Get,new Object[]{"I"},new int[1]).toDispatch();
Dispatch.put(ocolumn,"ColumnWidth","60");
//Merge cell
orange = Dispatch.invoke(osheet,"Range",Dispatch.Get,new Object[]{"C12:D12"},new int[1]).toDispatch();
orange.call(orange,"Merge");
Is it exciting, huh? :) I am trying to set HorizontalAlignment... beginner always stuck in somethings :)... but I have learnt so much

How can I set a value of column in SSIS by using Replace

How can I set a value of a column in SSIS using a Replace in Derive columns. I have here NameCode and I need to Set = 1 Where NameCode like LIKE '____99____'
eg. 1006993010... if 5th and 6th characters are 99
Else 0
Hope to hear from someone soon and I appreciate great help here.

If NameCode column is integer then you have to cast it correctly to String.
I am adding that to the expression provided by Rajen.
SUBSTRING((DT_WSTR,20)ProductCode,5,2) == "99" ? 1 : 0

How can I set up a 2 column layout in LiveCycle?

Hi,
I'm new to working with LiveCycle Designer. I'm using version 10.4, the OEM version bundled with SAP. Aside from being quite buggy, the capabilities seem pretty similar to LiveCycle Designer ES4, which I downloaded in a trial version. All of which is to say that this is a newbie question.
I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to set up a 2-column layout.
On my master page, I have two content areas.
When I create a new page, I am able to drag fields into the first content area I created, but not into the second content area.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Janet

Hi.
I am not a new LiveCycle Forms designer. I am using Workbench ES2 (9.0.0.2.20121123.884160). I have run into a new design problem related to a two column page. The business analytsts have designed the form in Word, where columns work great. I have tried two subforms within the page. The problem with that is when the right column subform overflows, it overflows to the left column (as the left column has not overflowed), or when the left column overflows (whether or not the right column overflows) the right column begins on the left column's overflowed page.
I have tried building a page with two side-by-side content areas in the Master Pages, including setting overflow parameters for each subform in the Design View, also with similar problems.
I have tried using a table with no header and 1 row. That one is interesting. When only one cell overflows to another page, it works correctly. When both columns overflow, the first text box in the subform in each cell is displayed at the top of the page and the remaining content of both cells overflow to the next page, leaving a nearly blank page containing only the one-line text label in each of the two columns.
Is there some nearly hidden setting I am missing? Is this possible within LiveCycle Designer Forms?
Thanks for your attention to this request.

How do I set the CoreTable sort column in the managed bean?

I have a CoreTable with two columns, first name and company, from the managed bean in a session scope, how do I set the company column to be the default/selected sort order?
Or is that done by binding the af:column to a CoreColumn object in the managed bean, which method would I use?
<af:column sortProperty="company" sortable="true">
<f:facet name="header">
<af:outputText value="#{common.labelCompany}"/>
</f:facet>
<af:outputText value="#{row.company}"/>
</af:column>
Thanks,
--Todd

Yes, I know, "sortable", see, I even used it in my example. I don't want to disable default sorting.
What I'm asking is how to have more than one sortProperty. When the user clicks the column heading, I want to sort by "myFirstProperty" AND "mySecondProperty". The sortProperty only seems to allow one sort property.
One possibility seems to be to programatically add items to the List of SortCriterion objects as in your example, but where would I put this code so that it is executed when the user clicks the column heading, but before the table is sorted.

How to decrease the width of left column in the "2 column layout"?

Hi all,
I create two webdynpro based iViews in the EP, then I create a page use the "2 column layout(Narrow:Wide)".I put one iview in the left column and another iview in the right column. When I preview my page, I found the left column still too wide. So how to decrease the width of my page's left column?
Thanks and Best regards
Deyang

Hi Deyang,
You have to create your own layout:
- Navigate to System Administration->Support
- Choose Portal Runtime -> Browse Deployment
- Navigate under pcd or under temp, and download the layouts par (com.sap.portal.layouts.default.par.bak if I recall correctly)
- Import that par as a project to Developer Studio
- Make your changes (create a new jsp acording to the existing examples, and update the portalapp.xml accordingly)
- Export to par (in a different name!) and deploy
- In the portal content: new from par -> Layout (don't forget to mark it as a template).
- Your new layout template will now be available when you create new pages.
good luck!
