Adding and Moving Columns

Standard Reporting Reference Manual

Creating and Running a Simple Report : Adding and Moving Columns

Now we will add two more columns to the report, for P1 CONN and P1 DIR.

A new column is inserted before the one selected in the list on the New Report Template form. To insert a column at the end of the list of columns, make sure that the entry reading <end> is highlighted, and select New again.

Enter P1 CONN into the Expression text box and set Units to Off. On the Column Layout form, set justification to Left. Select Next Column on the Creating Column form.

Enter P1 DIR into the Expression text box and set Units to Off. On the Column Layout form, set justification to Centre and select OK.

Select OK on the Creating Column form.

Remember that inserting a new column will renumber all columns to the right of the new column.

Now move the POS column so that it is the last (fifth) column again.

Highlight the POS column in the list on the New Report Template form, and select the Move option button. You will see the Move Column form. Select 5 from the option gadget and select OK.

Select Apply on the New Report Template form. The modified report should look like this:
