Change the column header according to the filter value ?

Hello Experts,
I have a requirement in which the customer wants to change the column header of the Sales Volume Key Figure to change according to the filter selected for the Calender Year / Month in the Free characteristics.
I could display the header as 'Sales Volume for OCT 2000' as this is the value restricted intially in the free characteristics for Calender Year / Month.
Any suggestion is appreciated.
Thanks,

Ioan Thanks for the reply.
Probably my previous explanation of the problem was a little incomplete. Let me give a better description.
The situation is something like this.
I have a requirement in which the customer wants the column header to reflect the 'keep filter value' restriction that he does dynamically in the query report.
i.e:
-- usually the kf column header shows 'sales volume'
-- column header with text variable of the Calender year / month variable -- 'sales volume for 2000 oct'
-- but when the report is run, if the user wants to go and change the filter: calender year / month > rt clk > keep filer value > select Jan 2003.
The kf column header still shows 'Sales Volume 2000 Oct'
How to make the column header change to 'sales volume for Jan 2003' ?
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

How to fix the column header width in BEx or WAD

hi there!
how to fix the column header width in BEx or WAD. because, depends on the column data, the column size varies. i want to fix the size so that i can maintain the consistency through out the report.
thanks!
Vam.

Dear Vam,
you can easily do that with css, search the source code of the executed web template for the td tag which is around your coloumn header, remember the style sheet class name it is ´displayed as class= in the td tag.
Now you can add this code the beginning of your web template:
</style>
This will only work in Web.

How to resize the columns of a table?

Hi there!
I want to resize the column of a JTable(constructed via AbstractTableModel) to
fit the exact width of the word in the header?
Can anyone tell me how to do this thing?
Regards,

    public ColumnResizeDemo() {
        initComponents();
        TableColumn column = null;
        for (int i = 0; i < jTable1.getColumnModel().getColumnCount(); i++) {
            column = jTable1.getColumnModel().getColumn(i);
            String hv = column.getHeaderValue().toString();
            JTableHeader th = jTable1.getTableHeader();
            FontMetrics fm = th.getFontMetrics(th.getFont());

How to change the column heading as the column changes

dear memebrs,
Take an example fo the table EMP. I need to create a report whose parameters are the table column names. so depending on the parameter(which is the column name) the report o/p changes.
so i am dynamically selecting the table column names and getting the o/p. The problem is when the column changes the heading of it in the report o/p is not changing.
we have to use format trigger for this, but i am not sure what code should we write in the format trigger of the boiler plate text of the column heading , such that it changes in accordance with the input which is nothing but column name.
for ex: If i choose EMPNO as the parameter then my column heading should become Employee Number and so on.......
your comments are welcomed
regards
sandeep

you can use a formula column of datatype character and of any width needed instead of a boilerplate text for the heading name.
In the formula column you can write code like below
IF :P_COLUMN_NAME = EMPNO THEN
return('Employee Number');
ELSIF :P_COLUMN_NAME = SAL THEN
return('Salary');
END IF;
where P_COLUMN_NAME the name of the column selected dynamically(i.e. the parameter).

How to change the column header name dynamically based on sysdate

Dear All,
i have designed some reports. i would like to change the column header dynamically based on sysdate. up to 24 months. can u help me, which add month function using the universe. i dont know if-then-else function is having the universe tool or not?

Post Author: prasingh
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
Are you saying you are not able to create an object by value (select: statement) as sysdate and put it onto the headers of your report? You can use the add_months() function on the object to add the numbers of months you wish.
Please let me knnow for more.. You can get in touch with me on [email protected] for quick reply.

How to resize the columns in the report

Hi
I want to resize the columns in my report to make them smaller so that they don't overlap, but after resizing the columns still overlap so that some columns headings are under the other ones.
Thanks

You can do it either by, going to the property palette of the column and then change the horizontal elasticity to 'Variable', this way it will shrink or enlarge the size automatically. Or, you can do in manually in the layout model, click the column then click the edge of the field and drag it to make it longer or shorter.

How to change the column header in XsltListView webpart

I have a XsltListView webpart. By default it displays the column name in the header. How do I change the header and give a friendly name? I am able to change the header, if I click on header and position the cursor at the right spot and change. But sometimes
it does not work. Is there any property which I can set in order to change the header? Thanks in advance.
ss

Hi ss,
Do you use SharePoint 2007 or 2010? And the XsltListView Web part only available in SharePoint 2010.
If you are using SharePoint 2010, to customize the header for each column, please try the following step.
Open list view in advanced mode in SharePoint Designer.
Select a header you need to modify > Click Customize XSLT under Design tab on the ribbon > Click “Customize Item”.
Then we can see <xsl:value-of select="$fieldtitle"/> has selected in Code view > Replace it with the text you want to display on the header.
For example, I want to display the string “customized header” in the header, then replace
<xsl:value-of select="$fieldtitle"/>
With
Customized header
Save the page and test.

How to ignore the column header in GUI_UPLOAD

Hi,
I am trying to use GUI_UPLOAD to upload data from text file into a table. However there is no parameter to ignore the column headers in this function. how can i set to ignore the column headers in this function?

Check the function module documentation and also refer to the parameter: HEADER_LENGTH
Length of Header for Binary Data
Description
Specifies the length of the header information. You must only set this parameter if the file type is 'BIN'. The default value '00' means that there is no header in the file.
Default
'00'

How to fix the column header

Try to display something like this:<br><br>
HA HB <br>
A1 B1<br>
A2 B2<br>
<br>
So I use:
<div class="Show2Rows"><br>
<table><br>
<tr><br>
<th>HA</th><br>
<th>HB</th><br>
</tr><br>
<tr><br>
<td><input ... value="A1" ></td><br>
<td><input ... value="B1" ></td><br>
</tr><br>
<br>
</table><br>
</div><br>
<br>
The rule is: allow it to display ONLY two rows in the window. When more rows are added, a vertical scroll bar will be enabled. --And, yes, it works just as expected.
The problem is that when more rows are added, when I scroll the bar downward, of course the rows will move up. When this happens, the Column Headers (HA and HB) will disappear. Obviously I need to fix the Column Headers.
So question is: How can I fix the headers while still be able to scroll the data rows up and down?
Thanks

Dear Vam,
you can easily do that with css, search the source code of the executed web template for the td tag which is around your coloumn header, remember the style sheet class name it is ´displayed as class= in the td tag.
Now you can add this code the beginning of your web template:

How to resize the column of alv depending upon the textbox settings in i.e

Hi,
I am using ALV component in one of my WD applications. ALV has a column date. If i resize the textbox from the internet explorer setting ( page->textsize in i.e.7) to anything greater than medium, the content of the columns is hidden.
For example, if the date is displayed as 25/07/2010, after resizing it appears as 25/07...
i have tried using column property of the alv : set_width and set_resizable, but it doesnt give the desired output.
Please give ur suggestions.
Regards,
Varuna

Hi,
Would increasing the width of ALV itself help?
using IF_SALV_WD_TABLE_SETTINGS~SET_WIDTH().

We do not have any direct setting in BEx to do it. You can write a VB macro code in BEx to achieve this.
