Rtf tables header repeated
« on: September 30, 2010, 10:04:28 pm »
Hi
I have an annoying problem with tables headers in the rtf generator:  when I generate the report, they are repeated for each table entry.

I'm working with version 7.5.850 and version 8.0.863

Everything works fine with the example templates provioded by EA, also if I generate a new template based on the example; but if I create a new table in a new template, the header is repeated.

Do you have suggestions?
Thanx
Davide

[highlight]Remove any lines between the end of the table and the end of the <risk section to ensure the table does not create extra lines when generated[/highlight].

Thanx Dan

Actually I've already read that comment but the problem was another one.

The rtf template was more or less structured as follow:

Name of the element
TABLE with tagged values and element status data formatted in an appealing way
Table for the the connectors (with the two rows as specified in the help)
Table for the modifications (with the two rows as specified in the help)
etc.

With this structure, I had the above problem.

When I've removed the TABLE with the tagged values, everything worked fine.

So it seems that the rtf generator kind of messes up the tables when the structure "of the table is not the one spcified in the help, as in the TABLE above.

Hope this helps
