| Full Vertical line separating each ACROSS section in PDF? | Login/Join |

I used the search feature but didn't find what I was looking for... Mikel example with CSS and Web focus Styles mixed is interesting but doesn't seem to work in PDF. I have a report with 5 ACROSS sections and I would like to have a vertical line from top to bottom separating each ACROSS section (including subtotal and grand total if possible): _______________|ACROSS1_|ACROSS2_|ACROSS3_|... field1__field2____|_values__| values___| values___| ________field2__|_values__| values___| values___| Subtotal_______|_values__| values___| values___| Total__________|_values__| values___| values___| (Sorry this is the best I could do in HTML) I tried Grid and border but only the first across section gets a line and it breaks between each value... Right now I'm using a field with value '|' and AS '|' but it's not great.  Is there a way to do that in PDF format? Thanks  | ||

STYLESHEET syntax (for PDF and PS): TYPE=type, {HGRID|VGRID}={ON|OFF|HEAVY}, $ (techsupport.informationbuilders.com/ ibase/masterindex/html/html_wf_53/wf53crlang/ cr26_pagelayout9.htm#1028133)This message has been edited. Last edited by: <Mabel>, | |||

Thanks but like I said VGRID doesn't work properly with ACROSS, It only put a grid around the first ACROSS value, I don't know why? | |||

Ah yes. Sounds like DATA is translated to a list of column (field) names, and she just includes the first hit on each. But I recall there is either an explicit TYPE keyword for across-column-data; or a way of referencing individual across columns or ranges of them in terms of the name of the variable plus a subscript (with some syntax like * to address them all). | |||

-*for the first across section: TYPE=DATA,COLUMN=C5,BORDER-RIGHT=MEDIUM,BORDER-RIGHT-STYLE=SOLID,BORDER-RIGHT- COLOR=B LACK,$ -*for all other across sections TYPE=REPORT,ACROSSCOLUMN=N3,BORDER- RIGHT=MEDIUM,BORDER-RIGHT-STYLE=SOLID,BORDER- RIGHT-COLOR=BLACK,$ But ACROSSCOLUMN gives an error in when opening Acrobat Reader: An unrecognized token 'endstream' was found. And the report is f... up, I can see the vertical lines but the report is broken.This message has been edited. Last edited by: <Mabel>, | |||

In an example in techsupport, TYPE=REPORT, ACROSSCOLUMN=N1, STYLE=ITALIC,$ TYPE=REPORT, ACROSSCOLUMN=N2, STYLE=BOLD,$ makes every column (heading and data) corresponding to the first verb object italic; and to the second, bold (so that italic and bold alternate across the page). So if you have only one verb object and want to try explicitly applying grid/vgrid/hgrid, the "TYPE=REPORT, ACROSSCOLUMN=N1, ..." syntax might force the issue. Then again, I harbor doubts that grid is specifiable for individual rows or columns, so that may lead nowhere. | |||

Unfortunately, it looks like TYPE=REPORT and BORDER-position don't work together TYPE=REPORT, ACROSSCOLUMN=N1, BORDER-RIGHT=MEDIUM,BORDER-RIGHT-STYLE=SOLID,BORDER-RIGHT-COLOR=BLACK,$ Gives the same error in Acrobat Reader.  | |||

Open a case. | |||

Finally, the error message was because my bottomgap and topgap were too big and I had 2 reports fitting on the same page (compound reporting nobreak). To do it, you need 2 formatting lines, 1 for the first instance of the across value (COLUMN) and 1 for the others (ACROSSCOLUMN) TYPE=REPORT,COLUMN=colname,BORDER-RIGHT= MEDIUM,BORDER-RIGHT-STYLE=SOLID,BORDER-RIGHT- COLOR=BLACK,$ TYPE=REPORT,ACROSSCOLUMN=Nn,BORDER-RIGHT= MEDIUM,BORDER-RIGHT-STYLE=SOLID,BORDER-RIGHT- COLOR=BLACK,$ I still have a little problem, now that I have my vertical line, the background color of my ACROSSVALUE dissapeared, it's now 'none' without any reason. I can live with that.  This message has been edited. Last edited by: <Mabel>, | |||
