Title: freezing column headers in report studio
Post by: johny.cbi on 04 Feb 2008 12:23:13 PM
there is list report and I want to freeze columns, my question is after
selecting the list report, when I go for size and over flow
"use scroll bars when necessary"

I'm not able to select that option, its disabled

is there any other way to select the above option

It is explained here:

Note: Works with HTML only. PDF output using this technique will crop the rows.

Hello,

If you have the permissions to change your CSS files, here is an excellent article in supportlink:

The advantage is that you don't have the problem of block alignement.
If your list contains too many rows, performance will be impacted.
It also works for crosstabs with some adaptations.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Patrice
