Set Font Size In Express Report Generation Using A Template

[dwfox1977]

Does anyone know how to set the font size using the express report generation with MS Word?  I am having trouble getting my 11th column to adjust to the correct size with the imported data table.  The values actually end up being off the screen.  Any ideas?

I would suspect the answer would lie somewhere in MS Word rather than LabVIEW.  However, I have tried figuring it out in both and have had no luck.  In WORD, I set all fonts to size = 10.  However, the table gets imported at size = 12.  Additionally, the table cells remain the same size regardless of how many columns are imported.

Just so all future visitors to this issue are aware, this is a known problem with the express report generation vi.  There is no solution at this time and problem will be fixed in future versions of LabVIEW.

dwfox,

this is probably too late, but...

When sending data AKA text to word one can use two different modes when seing it from words side of view. Typically the inserted text is inserted with its properties (if available), amoung are font, size, color etc. pp.

The alternative is siply adding the string and use the valid properties for the insert position.

I do not know what method is used in Express Report Generation, but it might be worth to adjust the target table properties as well as the style sheet for tables.

Just my € 0.02!
