Create Table in Crystal Report
I am newbie to Crystal Report, and i am using Crystal Report 2008. I want to know, do we have table object in Crystal Report.. so that i can draw a table with specific rows and columns, and drag and drop the items to each and every table cell as per the requirement.
The problem i am facing without using table object is that, i have to align each and every element either it is text field or database field from the field explorer, so that it looks like a table and it is too much time taking.
If it can be done in Higher versions of Crystal Reports, then please give details.
you have to draw tables mannually in CR, using the line and box items from the designer,
alignment is also available, you can use gridlines and alignment options of crystal reports, its not hard at all..
Goto Insert - Ole Object - Microsoft Office Excel
It will add a excel file in your report. By dragging vertical reduce the excel object to one row and and horizontally to your required no. of Columns.
That will create a table with one row and many columns and can grow automatically in Detail section.

I am creating a Jasper report via Jaspersoft Studio 6
I am using the following property to export my report into two separate Excel sheets (tabs): net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.break.after.row
My report consists of two tables, one table per sheet. So far, I have no issue creating this report.
However, I would also like to implement an excel auto filter on each table header using the following property: net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.auto.filter
I added the auto filter property to both table headers, with a start and end on both. But when I run the report, the filter only displays on my last table (the one on the second sheet). I imagine this may happen because in Excel, you are only allowed one autofilter per sheet.
How may I put an autofilter on BOTH tables of a jaspersoft .xlsx report output?
I have created a table in Jasper iReport Designer. When the report is executed,it shows the same table multiple times.
Although only single dataset & table is used.Please guide.
Thanks
Try to put your table component into the SUMMARY band because detail band repeats the record for every row in dataset.
If you really need to put it in the detail band, you can try set the
table property "printWhenExpression" to $V{REPORT_COUNT} == 1
I generated subreport with wizard. How can I insert new column into the table?
Assuming you're looking to insert a column between the two existing columns (and have your report continue to look nice), it's not trivial in the version of Crystal Reports you're using (based on your screenshot).
You'll have to resize/move your existing fields and field headings to make space (click on them to show resize handles), then drag the new field from the Field Explorer to the details section in the space created.
A newer version of Crystal Reports has added a "Smart Formatting" feature to make column insertion (and related tasks) easier - this article contains a summary of the feature.
msoffice2007. when report is exported from ssrs to excel sheet. the functions PIVOT Table and SORTING are not working, it is showing some error like:
""The PovitTable field name is not valid. To create a PovitTable report, you musr use data that is organized with labeled columns. If you are chanfing the name of a pivot table field you must type a new name for the field."" for PIVOT Table.
and ""The operation requires the merged cells to be identically sized."" for sorting
This is because your report isn't perfectly aligned and it cause different cells in the table to get merged, what you should do is to look for the cells whom didn't got merged (in the excel sheet) , check their size in the report builder and change the other cells to that size.
additional tip, make sure that your data (table in this case) is aligned to the top left of the screen.
I have a number of reports with current and ytd columns(summary totals by salesman). I want to be able to select the sub-report based on the column clicked. I have one sql procedure that selects current and one that selects ytd. I want to use the same report format (without having to copy and modify it) for current and ytd. Is there anyway of identifying what column is clicked?
Crystal Reports is pretty much just a reporting tool; it's not very interactive.
I'm more familiar with older versions of Crystal Reports, but as far as I know there aren't any onClick methods for columns that can be trapped using pure Crystal Reports.
Depending on how many columns you have, you can create a subreport for each column, but that may be prohibitively slow if you have a large number of columns you want to create subreports for.
If you're using C# or VB.NET to generate the report, you may have more options, but since the question isn't tagged with any programming languages, I'm going to assume this is pure Crystal Reports.
