Below example is to get rows or column names. I want to hide column names by indexing only and not by column name.Is it possible to get column name by indexing using table element? I also want to hide rows based on indexing. Please provide solution?

Here's an overview for you. First I would "configure" all inside the birt report, which shall be hidden or not. It's a bad design in my opinion, if the report is manipulated while using it. It could lead to serious race conditions, wrong outcomes and difficult debugging problems. The basics of creating a birt report are pretty much wrapped up here: Vogel, "Reporting with Eclipse BIRT and Java Objects (POJO’s) - Tutorial"
Then, when you have a Dataset or let's say a kind of data container like a variable you can put the content into your Template (*.rptdesign file).
The workflow is as follows:
If you like I made a simple example to show you how to hide an element, if a requirement is met. You can download it. BIRT Report Design Example
It's free GNUv2 whatever... Hope this helps you a bit. AFAIK
