Suppose i have 10 lines to display it supress 8 lines and show only 2 lines
as the size of it is as such.

It sounds like you are dealing with a merged cells issue in Excel once
the report is exported. The best ways to avoid this is to do the
following:
- Make sure that, if you have multiple tables/controls/matrices above
each other, that they are all touching each other.
- Make sure that the last table/etc control on the report (in Layout
view) is touching the bottom of the report border with no extra space
available.
- Make sure that all controls touch the right-side border of the
report and if you have smaller width controls (in particular
textboxes) in the report, make sure to extend the textbox controls out
to the full width of the report and same width as the widest control
on the report (normally, the table/matrix controls).
Hope this helps.

I have list within an list and we have section 1 thru 7. We display the list
based the parameters seleted from report for some result section might start
from 3 thru 6 . In such case when try to export to excel i get huge gaps as i
am missing section 1 thru 2 in the report.
How do we avoid those spaces when exporting to excel,

row and if I take the image cells away the row heights amend themselves
automatically but when the images are in the row they dont resize.
Any ideas? Any Help? Anything?

don't know what to try next. This report needs to go into production very
soon.
I inserted a rectangle containing textboxes for column headers in the left
corner of the matrix as instructed. When the matrix is exported to Excel,
there are 2 separate cells where ONE extra pixel, .08in, is inserted between
2 cells, causing a merged cell. There is no apparent reason. I have checked
the alignment and width of the columns and textboxes. I tried it with and
without borders on the textboxes. Nothing is working. When I exported the
matrix after I removed the rectangle and textboxes from the left corner the
export worked correctly. Are there any solutions?

OLTP vs Decision Support

Whilst on the Nth hour (n = many) of my magical journey through MS Sql BOL I've come across OLTP Vs Decision Support. After a couple of searches here could someone shore up the following for me please...

A decision support database is the same as warehouse database.

This is for static data commonly used for reporting and analysis.

OLTP is a live database (accomodates inserts, deletes, updates etc).

Is that right?

Also would it be fair to assume that a decision support database is generally going to be spawned from the historical data of an OLTP database? Any real world examples of these two terms would be greatly appreciated too.

Yes it comes from OLTP...dimensions, fact tables, star schemas, snowflakes...

All the buzz words...

basically you migrate data from your database to basically a read only version of the data...

You then may also have processes to derive data...and store it...for example all the sales for department stores for the month

You derive the data by state, by day, whatever...

However people need to see data that's what you build...

Now query is a lot faster because the work has already been done for the end user...

google up some non platform specific concepts...|||OK, makes sense and I only had to read it twice!
