Using Table Data Templates

Table data templates define the type of content that each row or column displays.

When you add the dynamic data table to the template by using the Create Table from Database option on the object toolbar, BarTender automatically assigns default table data templates to the table rows. The Table Header template is added to the first row when the connected database includes header fields, and the Data template is added for the row that automatically repeats for each data record when the item is printed.

By default, table data templates are applied to table rows. You can apply table data templates to columns after you configure your table to display data in columns. To do this, select Arranged in Columns on the Table Data property page.

In addition to the Table Header and Data templates, BarTender supports additional table data templates that can help you organize the table data. These table data templates can be used with table data field functions to help you summarize the table data. For more information about table data field functions refer to Using Table Data Field Functions.

The following template types are available: 

You can change the table data template for a row or column by using one of the following methods.
