Hi,

I need to display in table a set of data containing N elements but between two datas N value changes. The impact in a table is that the column number is variable.
The wanted behaviour is the same that CSV file and Excel display.

Does it exist a way to get an good result with BIRT Report ? Does it exist a system of separator to get dynamic column number in table ?

Thank you.

Is this something you could use a crosstab for? If not, you might be able to use the data engine api to check your data in the beforeFactory and build your table dynamically.

Thank's Michael,

I followed your second indication : Data Engine API. For help me to find one way to resolve my problem has been to read Report Scripting documentation and Scripted Data Source Example.
I work on RCP application and I used Java Events and Java class to inject script in report.
