Hide column when exporting OBIEE report to Excel - export-to-excel

In an Oracle BI 10g report, some of the columns are hidden with CSS: display:none.
But when I try to export the report to Excel file, the hidden columns appear. I tried with mso-hide:all; in the CSS, but it did not hide any columns, because the table is into another table. Do you have any ideas how to hide these columns from Oracle BI Analytics in order not to appear when exporting the report to Excel?

You can try creating a separate logical table with only columns you need to expose.

Go to the edit view button in the analysis tab.
*-Click on More Options button in the appropiate column.
*-Click on hidden.
The concerned column will be hidden in the analyis as well as in the excel file.

Oracle APEX Interactive Report filter

I have an interactive report with a column that displays an icon using HTML. The icon is a check mark to indicate if the specific fund is a scholarship or not. When filtering on that column to show only rows with the check mark the filter status shows "Sholarship = HTML CODE" instead of "Scholarship = CHECKMARK"
Is there any way to fix this?
Try writing your own SQL query in the filter section of the Particular Column.

Birt report - hidden cross tab cells showing in excel

I have a cross tab. I hide an entire column by setting the style to one containing "display: none". This looks great in html and pdf.
But when exporting to Excel, the column appears with empty values.
How do I force the excel export to not show the column?
Have you tried using the visibility expression for the column instead of the style display:none?
I think setting width to 0 only hide the column (when exporting to excel) when the report Layout is "Fixed Layout".
Unfortunately "Fixed Layout" is a pain to use when you have a crosstab with lots of columns, as Excel starts throwing errors if the width gets too big.

Is it possible to wrap columns (that contain a single word) in the Oracle Apex Interactive Default Report PDF Export Option?

I am working in Oracle Apex 5.0.4. I wanted to know if there is an option or if I can create a work-around to wrap text word (Eg. TwoParagraphsButNoWrap ) to fit in it's cell in the Oracle Apex Interactive Report PDF Export.
Currently with the example above, the text gets cut off at 'graphs'. If there were spaces included like Two Paragraphs But No Wrap, then the text would wrap. I cannot increase the column width since there are other columns included on the report.
Any suggestions or ideas would be helpful. I can provide more information if needed. Thanks!
Try creating custom report layout, you will get more control on styling table cells.

Birt: vertical cross Tab page break

I'm using birt report designer for create a report: in my report i have a crossTab with dynamic number of column because i'll do a query on DB with the parameters that the user post. Using the PageBreak property of the column Area in the crossTab i have no problem viewing my report in web browser or exporting this in excel file but when i export my report in PDF some column is cut.
I realize that i view all the column of the cross tab only if i set 'Fit to whole page' exporting the report:
Anyone know how i can manage the export in pdf in different way or if i can set 'Fit to whole page' for default?

Deleting column in devexpress grid

I want to delete column in devexpress grid without using Customization window. For example: by dropping column out of grid or there will be a X button on column that will delete it. Is it possible?
It is possible to drag-drop a particular ASPxGridView Column into the Customization Window or hide the Columns programmatically.
See the following Examples:
E3812
E2023
E3031
If you want to show/hide an individual Column while export, use the solution from the E3352 Example.
