Moving a column in Report Builder 2.0

Question

How can I just move the table column left or right in the report builder using the user interface (or, if necessary, a text editor)?

I tried to drag, look at the menu, etc., and I can not find this option. Is it there? Until now, I had to delete and recreate a column every time I wanted to change its position.

Answer 1

You can cut and paste - click on the column you want to move and cut with Control-X. Then select another column and paste it using Control-V. This will place the old column to the left of the selected column.

Answer 2

In Report Builder 3.0, you can move columns as follows:

• Insert a new empty column
• Copy (or cut) header text and value text in new empty cells
• Delete old column

Or the easiest way is to simply not move the columns, but change their contents, hovering over the column you want to change, and select a new data type. After that, you still need to update the column name and done.

I tried this, but it only moves the values ​​in the DataSet, not the report:

• Right-click DataSet1 in the left menu and select Dataset Properties
• Select Fields on the left and click on any field to move it with blue arrows on top
