Inserting and formatting tables158
When you or other users view the report in Results View, the tables, columns, and rows
appear or not as you specified.
Avoiding duplicate row aggregation
Web Intelligence automatically aggregates any rows that display the same set of
dimensions.
If you select the Avoid duplicate row aggregation option, each duplicate value is
displayed in a separate table column or row.
Avoiding duplicate row aggregation
To avoid duplicate row aggregation:
1. Select the table, right-click and select Edit Format from the menu.
The Properties tab displays the table formatting options. (For more information on the
Properties tab, see ”Java Report Panel interface tour” on page 29.)
2. Select Display > Avoid duplicate row aggregation.
Copying tables
You can copy and paste tables within a report or into external applications such as
Microsoft Word and Excel.
Note: You cannot copy tables from one instance of Web Intelligence to another.
To copy a table
1. Select the table, right-click and select Copy on the menu.
Web Intelligence copies the table to the clipboard.
2. To paste the table to another part of the report, right-click where you want the table to
appear and click Paste on the menu.
3. To paste the table into another application, paste the contents of the clipboard from
within the other application.
The table appears as a picture in the open document if pasted to another application.
NOTE: You can also copy a table into another application by dragging and
dropping the table directly into the open document in the target application.
You can copy the data in a table as plain text into another application. For example, if you
copy a table as text into Microsoft Excel, Web Intelligence copies the text in each table cell
to a cell in the Excel worksheet.
