Hi,

I am developing a report to be compatible for HTML format and EXL2K Format. I used the below line of code to adjust the column width.

TYPE=REPORT, COLUMN=1, SQUEEZE=0.9, WRAP=OFF, JUSTIFY=LEFT, $

It works fine in EXL2K format. But, It is not working fine for HTML format.

Please share your inputs.

Thanks

HTML is quite different from Excel, so some styling will not work. In your example, the SQUEEZE option does not work in HTML, but the WRAP and JUSTIFY will.

What is it you want to do? Do you want to make the width of the column wider than the widest value in it? If you want to make it narrower than the widest value, you must remove the WRAP=OFF option.

Reading the two articles I wrote regarding WebFOCUS HTML and PDF Report Design may help you a lot to understand formating columns. I do not discuss the EXL2K format in the articles but the information should be helpful anyway.

Go to the following link and then scroll to the bottom to find Parts 1 and 2

Thanks!
