Post by: richiearora on 03 Aug 2010 08:26:10 AM
Hi,

I am using this parameter table which Displays the Prompt value selected in the report in HTMl and Excel Format,

The Size is roughly 55-70 Characters , in Excel format it Displays the Full length, However the characters are not seen in the HTML format of the Report.

I am using 8.3 RS.

Please help me with properties to handle this characters.

Thanks

Just highlight the table cell that contains your paramdisplayvalue (don't just highlight the calculation, you need to select the entire cell that contains the layout calculation by either clicking the cell or by using the ancestor button) then look in the bottom left after selecting the cell. There, in the properties is a property called size and overflow. Click the ellipsis for that and then play around with the size either in inches or pixels to see which works best for you.

Be aware that if you have other table cells created in the same table as the one that contains the cell you want to increase, the other cells will expand accordingly
