Pivot Table control in a report
![HFSQL Classic HFSQL Classic](https://doc.windev.com/ext/images/us/HF.png?-2134303037) Available only with these kinds of connection
The report editor allows you to create "Crosstab" reports. In this case, there are two possibilities for a WINDEV application: - the data source corresponds to multiple data files: a Crosstab report based on a query will be created.
- the data source corresponds to a Pivot Table control present in a window (example in this page): the report created contains a Pivot Table control.
When creating a report based on a Pivot Table control from a window, the report contains only a Pivot Table control. This type of control can only be created in this type of report: it cannot be created independently of the report. In the editor, this control includes two blocks: - The "Header" block that displays the titles of the columns in the Pivot Table.
- The "Pivot Table" block that displays the titles of the rows and the associated data.
For more details on the different sources of a "Crosstab" report, see Crosstab report. Creating a Crosstab report based on a Pivot Table control Creating the report To create a "Pivot Table" report: - Click
in the quick access buttons. - The new element window appears: click "Report" then "Report".
- The report creation wizard starts.
- In this wizard, specify:
- the type of report to create: "Crosstab".
- the Pivot Table control used as data source.
- the skin template of the report (if necessary).
- the name and title of the report. This name (".WDE". file corresponding to the report) will be used to identify the report in your programs.
Characteristics of a Pivot Table report and a Pivot Table control Characteristics of the Pivot Table (Report editor) You can change the following characteristics of a Pivot Table report: - The data source of the report can be modified in the "Data" tab of the description window of report ("Report description" in the context menu of the report).
- The "General" tab in the description window of Pivot Table control is used to specify:
- the mode for calculating the width of cells: the available options are:
- Use the width defined in edit mode: the width of the cells will be the same as the one defined in the report editor.
Remark: The handles can be used to resize the data area in the Pivot Table control found in the report. - Fill the page as much as possible in width: the cells will be enlarged to fill the available space found in the page.
- Avoid the truncated cells: the cells will be possibly enlarged to display the entire data if there is enough space in the page.
- the expanding dimensions: the available options are:
- Like the control: the level of details displayed in the report will be the same as the one displayed in the Pivot Table control used as data source.
- All expanded: the entire data found in the Pivot Table will be displayed.
- All collapsed: only the first detailed level of the Pivot Table will be displayed.
- The "Style" tab in the description window of the PVT control is used to define the style of the control: the option "Define the style independently of the printed PVT control" is used to define a specific style for the control found in the report. If this option is checked, you have the ability to specify the style for the row headers and for the data.

[ + ] This example presents the different methods for creating a report: - prints based on different data sources (queries, variables, ...) - prints based on controls (Table, Spreadsheet, PVT, ...) - printing composite reports - specific prints (portrait/landscape, report with watermark, report with bar code, ...)
