If there are 100 characters in a string and a cell could only display 50 characters .... can the remaining 50 characters overflow to adjacent cell.

Like text overflowing from one column to another column.

Is there a reason why you can't merge the cells?

according to my requirement i need the columns .... so, when i display the data it looks like table where the data is partitioned according to various columns.

So, i got one dataset .... now i will put that in first column and the extra data should go into the adjacent columns.

is there any solution.

I don't understand.
Is there no data in the adjacent cell? It will overwrite the data in the adjacent cell?

Yes there is no data in adjacent cells.
Only 1 dataset per row.
So, i got about 10 rows -> 10 datasets. Each row contains 5 columns. I will insert 1 dataset in 1 row in first column.

Are you getting it now ?

Birt 3.7 by default in preview mode it is supporting this . But not in PDF view.
