Hiding / Reordering Columns [message #198425]

I'm working on a BIRT project and need to come up with a way of allowing
the user to show or hide data columns in a grid when viewing a report. And
after arranging the grid as they'd like, be able to export the data from
that grid into Excel, etc.

Anyone have any recommendations as to how I might be able to get something
like that accomplished? Or even point me in the right direction.

I've seen something similar in an Actuate demo, but haven't been able to
see any way of setting up something similar on my own.

Thanks!

Brad

Brad,

If you just want to turn columns on or off look at using the visibility
property. Possibly tie it to a report parameter.
If you want to dynamically add columns take a look at this blog entry.
