Columns

Use the Columns section to add, sort, or delete columns that you want to include in the report. The columns that are available for this grid can include standard fields, user-defined fields, grid columns and user-defined calculations that can vary based on the type of report you selected. Many reports can only include information from one grid. To change the available grid columns, use the Grid Type option in the Grouping and Sorting section.

See Columns for Proposal Firm List Report for a detailed list of the columns that are available for this report.

Field Description
Name This grid column displays the column name.

The column name is not the column heading for the report. Heading (described below) displays the default column heading.

Heading Enter the heading that is displayed on the report for the column. If you enter a heading that is longer than the space for the heading, you might need to adjust the column width in Width. Headings automatically wrap to 2 lines if they do not fit in the width of the column.
Width Enter the width of the column in either inches or millimeters based on which one you selected in the Unit of Measure field on the Layout tab.

If you select inches, enter fractions using decimals (for example 1.00, 1.5, and so on).

By default, Vantagepoint provides column widths suitable for the default heading text in Heading. If you enter a longer heading, you can adjust the column width.

Format For date, currency, number columns, and memo columns, this field displays the format in which the report presents the column value. To change the format, click in the Format column and select the format that you want to change.
