It really depends on how "dynamic" your use case is.

Thanks for the response. The use case is: the report can generate upto 40 columns controlled by the user via a set of report parameters. This is a large number of columns, which the Report Designer struggles with when addijng new columns etc. The report is usually exported to Excel and is generated via a scripted data set based on information extracted from a number of RTC tables.
The referenced articles are very useful but I can't see how to get started - i.e. how or where to add the table/code to the RTC report.
If I understand your use case correctly, you need to dynamically add columns to a table, not dynamically create a table. In this case, see the below posts for some ideas.

The BIRT reports in RTC are essentially just BIRT reports with Jazz data source, so there should be no difference in manipulating tables and the like comparing to other BIRT reports.
