Using report builder to create dynamic tables

Post by peterallis »

Hi, is is possible for Oracle report builder to run a query then output the data to a table without it looking like this

I need the fields to automatically resize and not give me the Red Arrows at the side. If i choose preview in Web Browser it looks ok, but I need it direct within either Writer or Calc.

thanks

The only thing I can think of is to check the style of that data (not sure if you can dictate a style in ORB) and make that style 'auto fit'. To preserve this change you have to save it as your default template, for I guess ORB is using your default template when it creates a document.
