Rendering output in Vertical instead of horizontal

  • Assuming my RS dataset ALWAYS returns 1 row of data, what's the best way to render a single line of output in a vertical presentation in RS 2005?

    Example:

    SELECT Servername, ServerIP, ServerEdition, ServerServicePack FROM MyMetaData

    WHERE Servername = 'Server123'

    I'd like to see the 4 columns displayed in vertical format

    Server Name: ServerABC

    ServerIP: 10.1.1.0

    Server Edition: 2005

    Server SP: SP2

    Instead of: ServerABC 10.1.1.0 2005 SP2

    (Should I use a TABLE, MATRIX, or LIST?) thx in advance.

  • To list my output in vertical format, I created 1 dataset and manually added 8 text boxes (1 label; 1 data element) for each of the 4 elements in the datasets. Then populated the 4 data text boxes using the 'expression' feature.

  • Dear DBASkippack,

    try to do one thing...

    Create a dataset which has single row and four columns say A,B,C,D

    Now, Drag and Drop a Matrix Control in your report.

    Now Drag and drop all the columns required into Columns Section.

    You can increase the width of column of matrix.

    Now Preview the report...

  • Hari.Sharma -- Exactly what I was looking for -- worked great. Thanks!
