[reportlab-users] simple tables example

[Timothy Smith]

ok an update

i found a small example but now i get this

 File "/usr/home/timothy/Projects/PubWare/python/WeeklyReportPDF.py", 
line 29, in MakeReport
    t = Table(WeeklyReport, rowheight, colwidth)
  File 
"/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages/reportlab/platypus/tables.py", 
line 149, in __init__
    elif len(colWidths) != ncols:
TypeError: len() of unsized object

here is my code

doc = SimpleDocTemplate('tmp.pdf')
   
    WeeklyReport = ('test','test','test')
  
    rowheight=(10)
    colwidth = (16,16,16)
    t = Table(WeeklyReport, rowheight, colwidth)
    doc.build(t)
