Hi Guys,

Do Anyone know how can I get this kind of display in my report or a Document talking about that? it will be very appreciated.
Here is what i'm looking for

In my list or crosstab 

For instance
                     COLUMN1                                     Measure1                         Measure 2

                   Cash Equivalents (level1)                   V1                                  v2
                          Money Market (level2)                v3                                   v4
                          Cash (Level2)
                                  .
                                  .
                                  .
                      Fixed Income (level1)                     v5                                    v6
                            Government(level2)                  v7                                    v8
                                   Corporates (level3)            v9                                    v10

You can use a table. Unlock the report by clicking the lock icon on the menu above. I guess on the formatting toolbar. Then you can drag a table inside a crosstab cell. On the first column of the table you can set a width that will serve as a tab to indent your data. Then on the second column you can drag your data item. If this is what you want, hope it helps. :)

Hi Tori , I found out how to get what I'm looking for, I played with List page header and some paddings to indent data.Tks again for your support.

Oh yeah! You can use padding. I forgot.  ::) But it's not working on ipad. Glad to hear that you already solved your problem. You're welcome. :)
