Hi,
I have generated a report in Reporting Services 2005 which contains 12 Column and its almost 15 inches. So, the report does not fit in one screen. I am looking a way so that I could make the First Column to stay in its place while I scroll from left to right so the user do not have to go back and forth to see the Column of the Report.
The concept is similar to Repeating the Header of the Report but in my case I need to Repeat the First Column of my Report.
Somebody please help me to solve this issue.
thanks

You can "freeze" the table header by setting the table's FixedHeader property to True, but I don't think you can freeze a table column. If you restructure your data and make it into a matrix, you can then freeze a row header in the matrix properties by selecting "Group header should remain visible while scrolling" - but probably you would only want to take the time to do this if this feature is very important to your users' experience of the report.

Thanks for the Reply.
I found a solution for this problem. I can fix the First Column of Report while I Scroll from Right to Left. So that the user donot have to scroll from right to left to see the First Column.
Here is how I achieve it:
Select the Top of the Column1 and in the Property Section of Column1 Scroll all the way down and make the "FixedHeader" to True.
Then go to the detail section of the Column1 and change its "BackgroundColor" to "White".
By this the First Column will be fixed in its place while I scroll from left to right or right to left.
This is very helpful when report contains a lot of column and all the column is not visible in one screen.
thanks
