FRW would like to use different formats per row and column

Post Date: 3/8/18 (Bronze, 3 Posts) Recent Posts

FRW EE2016: it seems that it's not possible to define different decimal formats per row (f.ex.: row 1 2 decimals, row 2 without decimals) and column (f.ex.: column 5 with 1 decimal column 6 without). Column format would have priority on row format or maybe user defined. On the former report writer it was possible. Does somebody have a solution (Doing everything in Excel isn't a nice work around).

Kind regards

Hans

Does the Report Writer documentation not help?

example page 76.

Hi Raymond,

Thanks for your reply. You are referring to the old report writer where it was possible. I'm looking for the same functionality in the new FRW where I can't find anything similar. It looks like under the menu point 25.16.20 (project) you could define the column decimals, but they are overwritten with the report writer default. And it seems there is no way to define row specific decimals.

What about "Changing QRF Report Settings" page 174. Chapter "Decimal Tabs".

For that Doc, only page 185 onwards applies FRW.  Page 174 is for Crystal Reports.

By the way, I believe quite a bit of enhancement is needed to bring the FRW to the same level of GLRW. I guess need to wait for new release.
