General Features of Microsoft Word
The general features of Microsoft Word are large blocks of text, page breaks, page numbering, and hidden text.

Large blocks of text

Page breaks

(Not supported for HTML output) To insert a page break, press Ctrl+Enter right before the closing tag of a group. For example if you want the template to start a new page for every Supplier in the Payables Invoice Register:

Place the cursor just before the Supplier group's closing <?end for-each?> tag.
Press Ctrl+Enter to insert a page break.
At runtime each Supplier starts on a new page.

Using this Microsoft Word native feature causes a single blank page to print at the end of the report output. To avoid this single blank page, use BI Publisher's page break alias. See Inserting Page Breaks.

Page numbering

Insert page numbers into the final report by using the page numbering methods of the word processor. For example, if you are using Microsoft Word:

From the Insert menu, select Page Numbers...
Select the Position, Alignment, and Format as desired.
At runtime the page numbers are displayed as selected.

Note that page numbering is not supported for HTML output and has limited support in RTF output. After the RTF report is generated, press F9 to reset the page numbers.

Hidden text

You can format text as hidden in Microsoft Word and the hidden text is maintained in RTF output reports.

Aligning Objects
Use the word processor's alignment features to align text, graphics, objects, and tables. Bidirectional languages are handled automatically using the word processor's left/right alignment controls.

Note that BI Publisher output documents do not support right and left justification for symbol-based languages such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.

Inserting Tables
Microsoft Word tables are can be used to enhance your reports.

The following Microsoft Word features are supported in BI Publisher:

Nested Tables

Cell Alignment

You can align any object in the template using the word processor's alignment tools. This alignment is reflected in the final report output.

Row spanning and column spanning

To span both columns and rows in the template:

Select the cells that you want to merge.
From the Table menu, select Merge Cells.
Align the data within the merged cell as you would normally.
At runtime the cells appear merged.

Table Autoformatting

BI Publisher recognizes the table autoformats available in Microsoft Word.

To autoformat tables:

Select the table that you want to format.
From the Table menu, select Autoformat.
Select the desired table format.
At runtime, the table is formatted using your selection.

Cell patterns and colors

To highlight cells or rows of a table with a pattern or color:

Select the cell(s) or table.
From the Table menu, select Table Properties.
From the Table tab, select the Borders and Shading... button.
Add borders and shading as desired.
