How to resize column width in report?

hi all,
i read somewhere here that in order to resize column width in a report, you need to go to report attributes, then edit the column you wish to resize and then go to the CSS Style and place something like "width=600px". while this works very well in Internet Explorer, it somehow has no effect in Firefox 3.0. is there a way to make it work both browsers?
thanks
allen

Hi,
Sorry, I misunderstood. There are several methods you could use:
1 - Use the span tags around the data itself - this would require adding the tags into the sql statement itself
2 - Use javascript to set the column widths by adding a style to the TD tags for each cell
3 - Create a new Report Template and use COL tags immediately after the TABLE tag in the Before Rows section to specify the widths of all columns
Option 3 may be the easiest?

How to controll column width in report ?

Dear All,
i have created Classic Report but here Column width is too large.
i want to controll column width in report .
How can i do this..
Thanks

Hi Vedant,
There are two possibilities in your case.
1.width of your column heading is too large.
include break in your column heading
for ex .. column heading is employee department number then write it as *[Employee(br)Department(br)Number]* // replace ( with < and ) with > in br
2) Value is too large
Go to Report Attributes->edit your column->column formatting->css style
In CSS style put this display:block;width:100px;white-space:wrap
Hope this will helps you,
Thanks,
Jitendra

Resize column width for JTable without column headers?

Hi,
I find that for me to resize columns of a JTable by using
mouse dragging, I MUST have column headers and then drag
column headers to resize them. Is my understanding correct?
Actually, I need to have a table without header columns.
How can I use mouse to resize column width by dragging?
The background for this request is that I am putting a
complex table as another table's column header and I hope to
be able to resizing the complex table by mouse dragging.
Thanks very much,
David

Hi,
I think you have mistake there. Try
<style type="text/css">
table.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA td {
white-space:nowrap !important;
td[headers="DESCR"] {
width:300px !important;
max-width:300px !important;
#apexir_DESCR {
width:10px;
max-width:300px !important;
</style>And you can try add
table.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA {
width: 100% !important;
table-layout: fixed !important;
}Regards,

Hi Khandal,
Thomas has said about the same resizable feature in this [thread|Adjusting Column width on Web Dynpro ALV;.
"That functionality is there in 7.0 Enhp1. It works for standard tables and ALV. You only have to set the fixedTableLayout property to True. Here is a video of it:

How to fix column width in a report

Hi all,
i have to set the width of a column of a report of mine fixed and to have text wrapping inside of it.
i would prefer to avoid to modify the theme (that might involve other item) and i wanna work just on that report.
i've tried to create a new template (Report Region Wrap) and i guess i'm supposed to set something like:
SPAN STYLE="white-space:nowrap"
but i don't know where...
This is the "definition" of my template:
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" summary="" class="t9GCCReportsStyle1" id="#REGION_ID#">
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" summary="">
<tr>
<td class="t9RegionHeader">#TITLE#</td>
<td class="t9ButtonHolder">#CLOSE# #PREVIOUS##NEXT##DELETE##EDIT##CHANGE##CREATE##HELP#</td>
</tr>
</table></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="t9Body">#BODY#</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="t9RegionFooter"></td></tr>
</table>
i've already tried putting it in <td class="t9Body" ... > but with no results.
thankx a lot,
matte

I had the same problem and searched the forum I came up with the following conclusions.
</div>
</div>
The ability to use the CSS is determined in the template.
The template must allow wrapping for this to work.
</div>
</div>
I got my columns (columns of varchar2(500) the wrap and split words at white space.
</div>
</div>
I added</div>
</div>
<style>
</div></div>
.t12data{white-space:normal !important;}</div></div>
.t12dataalt{white-space:normal !important;}</div></div>
</style></div></div>
to the Page / HTML header
</div>
</div>
and added
</div>
(removed < for formatting)div style="width:100px; white-</div>space:normal">#column_name#</div(removed > for formatting)
</div>to column_formatting / html_expression
</div>where 100 is the pixel with
</div>and column_name is name of the souce item
</div>I am using theme12 (blue) / report Standard, Alternating Row Colors
</div>and didn't want to change the template as it is being used in other apps.

Controlling Column Width in Report Region

I have a report region based on a simple select statement. I'd like the table to be the full width of the region and I'd like the columns to be spaced evenly so that they are also the full width of the region. I have figured out how to set the table width via Report Attributes Substitution, but I am unable to set the column width. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How to autosize column widths in Mail?

One of the nice features in Windows that I can't seem to find in OS X is the ability to quickly auto adjust the column widths.
In Outlook, you can either double click one column heading divider to adjust that column's width, or double click the furthest (to the right) column heading divider and all of the columns adjust their width for best viewing.
In Mail, I have to drag each of the column dividers to adjust the width.
If I resize the Mail window, I need to adjust them again.
I haven't been able to find an easy way to do this.
Does this feature exist in Mail?

no. you have to adjust the column widths individually by hand.

How to highlight columns in the report

Hi,
I have two tables/views with same structure, one is with old data and one is with new data (there may be one or more changes in the column for a row). My application has to generate a report comparing these two tables/views and display only changed rows with older row first and then below that new one.
Ok my query is how can i "Highlight" the columns in the report those have been changed from old values.
I want to "Highlight" only new data columns.
Also if you can guide me in query how to compare these two tables/views.
Regards,
Smith

Hi,
I think you can do this with a single SQL statement and a custom "Row Template" for the report. Something like: [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=267:83] - if that is the sort of thing you mean?

How to control column width in table?

I have a table with four columns, and they are all with same width.
But I want to make one of them wider.
How should I do?
public void loadTable(){
Vector infoList = myObj.getInfoList();
Info info;
DefaultTableModel dtm = (DefaultTableModel)myPanel.tblList.getModel();
String[] columnNames = {
"wider column",
"Column B",
"Column C",
"Column D"};
dtm.setColumnIdentifiers(columnNames);
for(int i=0;i< infoList.size();i++){
// add stuff to "data"
dtm.addRow(data);
myPanel.tblList.setModel(dtm);
myPanel.tblList.getColumnModel().getColumn(1).setWidth(100);
I also tried setPreferedWidth(), not working for me either.
What should I do?
Thank you

Try setting all the column widths. Define values for normal and width columns:
        DefaultTableColumnModel tcModel = (DefaultTableColumnModel) myTable.getColumnModel();
        Enumeration columnEnum = tcModel.getColumns();
        while (columnEnum.hasMoreElements()) {
            TableColumn column = (TableColumn) columnEnum.nextElement();
            if (column.getModelIndex() != 1) {
                column.setPreferredWidth(narrowWidth);
            } else {
                column.setPreferredWidth(wideWidth);

How to set column widths in tables for selected table only, not globally throughout document?

I've been utilizing the below script (thank you so much Ramkumar. P!) to set column widths throughout a sizable InDesign book with tables on every page and it is truly a time saver. At this point in time, I have three versions of it because there are different column widths throughout the book. Is it possible to augment the script to run only on a selected text frame (containing a table)? If so, would someone be kind enough to share the augmented script with me? I've been trying to figure out this seemingly simple change through trial and error with no success as yet. I realize this is a totally newbie request and I'm entirely at the mercy of the kindness of the Javascript gods that contribute within this forum. Seeing that in a different post related to this script, one such guru responded to a request as simple as "Where do I put the scripts in InDesign" gave me enough courage to ask for some help! Thank you in advance to anyone willing to provide a solution.
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
     var myWidths = [100, 100, 150, 150];
     for(var T=0; T < myDoc.textFrames.length; T++){
         for(var i=0; i < myDoc.textFrames[T].tables.length; i++){
             for(var j=0; j < myWidths.length; j++){
                 myDoc.textFrames[T].tables[i].columns[j].width = myWidths[j];
     alert("Table width updated successfully...");

Hello all
I have the same problem in that I'm not a scripting person, but was able to get the above script working without problem, and it does set irregular table column widths perfectly, so thanks to Ramkumar. P for that.
BUT, it changes the column width for ALL tables in the document, whereas I would like to just target the selected table.
Any ideas as to how I might amend this script to achieve this?
Thx, Christian
