No Fields Appearing Under Table

Trying to add a table to my NPrinting Excel template but there are no fields appearing (image attached).  The table works fine in the app and right clicking on the table in NPrinting and selecting Update just tells me there have been no changes.  Metadata has been reloaded the the connection verified.  It is a large table, 82 fields, is there a limitation in NPrinting on the table size?

do you have any conditional hide/show (show column if) in this table?

If you do obviously table columns cannot be used as they can be in some scenarios hidden or shown. That is the reason why you can only use a table tag, rather than column tag.

Solution - remove anything from "show column if" properties in the source table and reload metadata!

cheers

 

btw - I am assuming it is not a pivot table!

Thanks, that worked.  I had one column set and should have removed it as the hidden column feature doesn't really work anyways.
