I have a field Large text in my Access table and When I create a Form an I add this field I can Write several lines with intro to break down each line but when I open that table in that field I only see the first line I wrote, but If I see that record by the Form I see all the lines.
Seems that the lines are stores but the table in View mode do not show them
Any idea please?
In the table (datasheet view), increase the row height to see multiple lines per row.
Just as you would do in Excel.
Upps.
If I use the arrow down I see all the text
Sorry...

I have a table which I update using a stored procedure. One column is for the image Url. The code in the stored procedure looks like:
UPDATE Products
SET ImageUrl = 'https://images.XXXXXXX.com/lm/image/s/'+RIGHT(Source,2)+'/'+Source+'_'+Code+'.203'
I need the url to be in a single line in the cell however, it splits the url right before .203 when writing it into the cell. So, in the cell, it is like;
https://images.XXXX.com/lm/image/s/ab/g671235_12312
.203
It normally is no problem for me but I use this data in XML. And Since the Url is not in one line, the remote server I connect does not update the image when I submit the XML. When I manually fix the Url and put it in one line, it just works fine. I googled and searched to find a way to fix this issue, but I could not find a solution. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
It sounds like there is a carriage return/newline feed captured within your "Code" column. I have encountered this many times when users manually fiddle with values (they update the value and then hit thinking this will apply the value when this is just inserting the r\n\ values within the column).
To double check if this is the case:
Locate the value that is causing this line break to appear
Copy that cell value (I assume you are using SSMS)
Open Notepad++, Sublime, or similar editor that will display non-printable characters
Set your editor to display non-printable characters (in Notepad++ it is View > Show Symbols > Show All Characters)
This should then display the line break characters that are causing your headaches
Quick solution: Scrub \r\n values - https://stackoverflow.com/a/951705/8026186
More Ideal Solution Prevention of \n\r insertion
If you have access to the data being entered in the database, the best way to avoid this is to prevent the \r\n from making it into the cell in the first place. The quick solution will work in case you don't have the leverage to control initial input. However, from past experience, you will want to avoid non-printable values from appearing in the first place.
Hope this helps!
I am working on IBM I series VR7, and running SQL(DB2) using CLLE.
I have a SQL procedure in a TXT file, having below command to create a table in QTEMP.
create table qtemp.FILE1 as (
select
Field1,Field2,Field3,.....Field10 from FILE2 ) with data;
I am calling the above procedure from CLLE using below command.
RUNSQLSTM SRCFILE(MyLib/MySrc) SRCMBR(Proc_txt) COMMIT(*NONE)
And then running below command to generate the spool.
RUNQRY QRYFILE((FILE1)) OUTTYPE(*PRINTER) OUTFORM(*DETAIL) FORMSIZE(60 132)
FORMTYPE(*STD) COPIES(1) LINESPACE(1)
The issue I am facing is that I am getting 2 white spaces between columns while creating the table using the create table command. When that table is converted into a spool file using above RUNQRY command, the fields on the right side truncates as my report width is 132 by default and I can not change it.
If the white spaces in the table created can be reduced to 1, my issue will be resolved.
The SQL I am using IBM i Series' default and DB2 as database. I don't have much idea about their version.
Edit2: Another issue I had was of report having a field in second line. Actually as per requirement a field had to be in the second row under another field. For example I needed field10 under field5. I have fixed it too, read my answer below.
Hope it helps people in need but I really doubt.
Edit1: I have updated the question as requested. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
The short answer is that yes you can define the report to have 1 space between columns, but you have to define the Query400 object to do that. Unfortunately this is not a good place to write a tutorial for Query400. I can get you started though.
Type wrkqry, press enter.
Then put the cursor on the query name field, and press F4. You are now in the tool. You need to create a new query, and define everything about it in this tool. Play around with it, and see if that helps you.
I was able to get what I needed. As others have suggested, I have finally used WRKQRY to control the column spacing. Reduced the column spacing to 1 and was able to get the columns needed in the 132 width.
Another issue I had was of report having a field in second line. Actually as per requirement a field had to be in the second row under another field. For example I needed field10 under field5. So what I did was, I used the Line wrapping feature available in WRKQRY.
How I did:
Create a WRKQRY object and select the file needed.
Sequenced the field I needed in second line, to the bottom.
Go to Select Output Type and Output Form and take Y on Line Wrapping field. Put the
wrapping width equal to your report width. Leave other fields as required.
This way each record will have 10th field in next row, if it has data. You can add as
many as fields.
You may have to add some white spaces to the field for proper alignment. I would
suggest to create a new field and use concat(||) operator available in WRKQRY.
Thanks everyone for helping.
I am creating a data-merge document in InDesign.
There are various tables that I've created which only show as many rows as there is actual data in the field, through some creative table and cell styles.
Now I've been asked to only have an entirely separate table only show if there is information in any of those fields.
I'm at a total loss. With the way the current structure is set up, I can cause it to not display any text, but it still shows empty header cells and one line of empty row cells.
Pre-DataMerge, with the data fields
Post-Datamerge, with the resulting empty cells
Any creative ideas to hide that table? I was thinking there might be a way to hide the entire text field, if not the table. Maybe a script? I tried one that deletes blank tables, but that didn't seem to work after the data-merge was run.
I am not sure you can get that level of processing with InDesign datamerge. You could think of a script to post remove those tables or use a dedicated plugin such as Easycatalog that can take care of such empty items natively.
Is it possible to keep table column within the same page? It always go to the new page when table width is larger than page.
I design a report with TableA that have dynamic columns. The dynamic columns are in short format. For example: BS, BN, OT...
In order to understand column meaning, I have to create another table, TableB, below the table to explain. I want to display it horizontally. For example: BS: Basic Salary| BN: Bonus| OT: Over Time| ...
But when TableB has many columns, It go to new page and leave a lot of blank space in previous page. I want to keep columns in the same page, if possible.
I want TableB to display like this:
|X:xx| X:xx | X:xx| X:xx| (Edge of right page)
|X:xx| X:xx|
You're using a horizontal table, a great tutorial is described here
You probably have most of the horizontal table figured out, just this part is important to your issue.
Step 4
Right-click on the column header and select "Edit Group". Enter this
for the group expression: =RowNumber(Nothing). This will cause the
matrix to give you one column per row of data. Since horizontal tables
can end up rather wide, you probably want your table wrap around to
the next "line" after a specific number of columns.
Just simply count the number of rows that fit your page exactly and define this number in your column group expression as described in the tutorial.
Use Column Visibility to hide column instead of Cell Visibility. This should eliminate the blank space.
If the report is still too big, set the report interactive size to 0in,0in. This will keep everything in one page.
I am having set of text boxes in the report and binding each columns in the text box from the Data set.
As of now only first record from the dataset is binding in the text box.
I need all the rows in the dataset to bind in the text boxes page wise.
Each row in the dataset bind to text boxes page wise.
First record in first page,Second record in second page ... etc.
How to achieve this? Help me to solve this...
Thanks in Advance,

I recently faced the same issue, I used some help from stackoverflow to solve the issue, u might have already figured it out but this is to help others with similar issue.
Make sure you have a Dataset defined for your report.
Add a "Table" control to the report. This seems to be needed in order to iterate the rows in your Dataset.
Delete the header row and two of the default columns from the table so that you are left with a single row with a single column.
Expand the table to the width of your layout and make it as tall as you will need for your "free form" layout.
By default, there is a TextBox inside the table cell. Right-click the empty table cell and choose "delete" to remove that TextBox.
Drag a "Rectangle" control into the empty table cell. It seems to automatically "dock" to the width/height of the table cell.
Now you should be able to drag the fields from your DataSet (TextBoxes, etc) into the Rectangle to produce the desired layout.
You can use a List with page breaks at the end of details group.
