WebFOCUS 762 join problem
We recently upgraded WebFOCUS 711 to 762. Some of the reports no longer work. I get 0 records or empty report if I have a join between WebFOCUS hold table and Oracle table. Anybody else have join problems with 762? Any help to fix this problem would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeeva

Not that particular issue, had some issues with IE and drop down selection in BID.

Check the formats of the fields you're joining on, I would bet the fields from one of the tables, probably the hold file, are in AnV and some are straight An. Add 'FORMAT ALPHA' to you ON TABLE HOLD statement when creating the hold file.
