sql server 2008 table

  • The following two questions pertain to format questions I have about sql server 2008:

    1. When I export some of the sql server 2008 tables to either word or PDF, and the table goes to two or more pages, there is a complete empty page break. Basically I will see the table, followed by a blank page, the table is continued to another page, there is another empty page, the table is continued to another page, there is another empty page. Thus can you tell me how to make certain there are not all the empty pages I just listed above?

    2. I am thinking of creating 1 table that would look like the following. Each sentence would be a different row in the table.

    When looking at the data below:

    a. How would I get lines 1 and 2 to show up only once?

    b. How would I get lines 3 and 4 to show up on every page?

    line 1 'The table contains the following sales figures:

    line 2 ' Company XYX Bike sales'

    line 3 (column headers look like

    Product name product quantity total price

    line 4 (detail data)

    bike a 8 $752

    bike b 1 $890

    bike g 3 $275

    Thanks!

    Ans:Insert ur tablix/matrix inside a rectangle that can reduce u r blank pages....if still u r getting errors check the page width of u r report settings...

    2. I am thinking of creating 1 table that would look like the following. Each sentence would be a different row in the table.

    line 4 (detail data)

    bike a 8 $752

    bike b 1 $890

    bike g 3 $275

    Create a list control then

    ADD text box in line1

    add text box in line2

    add a table/tablix to show the line 3 and line 4 data...

    Thanks

  • In the above question, what would I use a list control for?

  • Hi,

    Let me understood u r question..If u r asking how to use a list..then

    Go to the toolbox find list and drag it to the report body area and go to properties add the dataset which u have. n side that allign u r all controls as ur requirment.

    Please let me know if my guess is wrong or u have any questions.

    Thanks
