Is there any limitation on the maximum number of items that can be included on a single line in the Heading ? If yes, how many ?

I don't know what you mean by "item" (character, field, graphic, text, ??) but many of the freeform reports we develop are entirely contained in the HEADING section. Now a limitation on a single line would only be what would be practical to display in a browser window, printed page, Excel cell, etc. I would say that there probably is not a physical limitation, but there is going to be a practical one.


Regards,

Darin

Limits for Headings and Footings
The following limitations apply to report headings and footings, page headings and footings, and sort headings and footings:

In a single report, there can be a maximum of 32K characters for all types of heading and footing text.

The maximum number of sort headings plus sort footings in one request is 64.

The maximum limit of nested headings is 64.

If your code for a single heading or footing line is broken into multiple lines in the report request, you can indicate that they are all a single line of heading using the <0X spot marker. For more information, see Extending Heading and Footing Code to Multiple Lines in a Report Request.

For PDF and Postscript reports, the heading or footing lines must fit within the maximum report width to be displayed properly. Also, in order for the report body to be displayed, the number of heading or footing lines must leave room on the page for at least one detail line (including column titles).
