Row Spanning

Of course the output looks ok, but if you have a closer look
You can see the thicker borders produced by the adjoining bottom border of the previous data-containing table and the top border of the next repeated table.

If you are looking at the detailed level. Sorry, this is not the solution , you got to look :)....


In the previous post, Mr.Matt requested to get the row-spanning,
on the left side,

With little play with tables , i was able to achieve it..



Hmm, Mr.Matt was asking for Better cleaner method,
I was trying to find alternate solution, but another solution version is here :)

Hope i will get better one, next time :)..

I'm struggling to find a way to do the exact same thing. Is the bottom image on your post (the one with grey and white backgrounds and the mustard-color header row) a finished product you were able to get? You mention "but another solution version is here :)" If so, can you post the template?

Thanks

Thanks

Repeat Table Header in all pages in BIP

how to repeat the column titles on a table in all pages if the table extends over several pages What you need to is: 1. Select and Highlight the table header row 2. Right click and select table properties 3. On the Row tab properties , specify that the header row should be repeated on every page 4. Save the RTF 5. BIP looks at the properties of the word settings for the table and will repeat the header row on every page the table needs.

Limit rows per page

Image
Solution to have fixed number of rows in each page. This solution is not a perfect solution considering the line size increases due to text in each line. But this solution gives you how to fix no of rows per page. In the forum Heated discussion Users are arguing for having a placeholder in same fixed place on all pages, irrespective of no of lines , increased line size due to word-wrap. Here i am not going to discuss anything related to that. But a simple logic of , how to fix number of rows. Step 1: Loop through the records and display them Step 2: Have a condition for MOD of position(), then insert a page-break on the result of Zero Step 3. Blank row has to be filled, a condition has to be added, to find how many blank rows ROWLIMIT - (count of row mod ROWLIMIT) will gives us the rows to be filled.
