Tables

Description

A table is a sequential, two-dimensional list. This doesn't imply that the data in a table is simple or uncomplicated: you can present a great deal of data in a table.

The layout of columns within a table is directly related to the layout of the objects within the Block panel. WebIntelligence places the cells in the table in the same order in which they appear in the Block panel.

Suitable for

Presenting data in a tabular, two dimensional list.

Keep in Mind

• Arrange the objects in the order you want them to appear in the block.

For example, if you want each row to have a salesperson's name, address, and the amount of sales revenue that person has generated, in that order, arrange the objects representing name, address, and revenue in a single row in that order in the Block panel.

• Whether your document includes sections or not, you always lay out the body of the table in the Block panel.
