Hi,

When I add a table to a form, How can I change the width of the table but not give fixed width value? I tried to trag the sizing bar on the table, but it does not work.

Thanks,
Xiaoli

Style the table control and set the width property to your intended % value

If the % width is still not giving you what you want, try changing the layout type of the parent panel.

On your page, what is the parent controls of your table? On the table's parent control, what is the layout type. Try removing the layout of the parent.

The parent controls are panels and the top one is page.

I removed all the layout type for all the related parent. It still the same.

Hi Xiaoli,

If the table is display only, the column widths will allow content to wrap and therefore the width of the table should behave as expected.

If the table has enterable columns, you have to resize the text boxes by changing their display length so that the total width required by the columns do not exceed the available width available.

It works now using your suggestion on column display length.

Thank you Wai.
