Hi all,
Is there any method to set the column length in a row(in all rows)automatically according to the columnlabel width .In my worksheets every column label has different width(length) when i imported them from files the column name is not appearing completely.sometimes the label is small and the values are too long.So half of the values are coming.
So I want to set the column width on the bisis of their names and value without any extra extra length per column. If possible, can anyone help me?
Thank you,
Blank

Hi Blank,

Here's a simple LabTalk solution. It sets the width (in characters) of each column equal to its name or label width (whichever is bigger)...

loop (ii,1,wks.ncols) {
%N=wks.col$(ii).name$;
%L=wks.col$(ii).label$;
nn=%[%N]; // width of column name
if(nn<%[%L]) nn=%[%L];
// if label is wider use it instead
wks.col$(ii).width=nn;
};
