Hi,
I have a bar graph which runs on two parameters and a drill report for the bars of the graph.
I am not using the parameter values inthe graph but i need that on the drill report.
Since the graph does not use those parameters on while plotting i dont't have the parameter value available to me while drilling down to the next report.
Can anyone suggest me a work around which will allow me to use one set of parameter values of the graph to the next report aswell asa parameter.



GRAPH FILE MASTERFILE
SUM COMPUTE C_Actual/D12.2=WA_MASTERFILE.FACT_CONS_MONTH.ACT_CONS / 1000000; AS 'Cons'
ACROSS WA_MASTERFILE.DIM_YEAR.YEAR AS 'Year'
BY MASTERFILE.DIM_TRAN_TYPE.TRAN_TYPE_DESC
HEADING
"Year over Year Cons"
" "

WHERE ( MASTERFILE.DIM_YEAR.YEAR GE &FromYear.().Year. ) AND ( WA_MASTERFILE.DIM_YEAR.YEAR LE &ToYear.().Year. );

I'm fairly certain that you can SUM them with NOPRINT and they will not show up in the GRAPH.

I did as below but still no luck.. this errored out.


GRAPH FILE MASTERFILE
SUM COMPUTE C_Actual/D12.2=WA_MASTERFILE.FACT_CONS_MONTH.ACT_CONS / 1000000; AS 'Cons'
SUM '&FromYear' NOPRINT
SUM '&ToYear' NOPRINT
ACROSS WA_MASTERFILE.DIM_YEAR.YEAR AS 'Year'
BY MASTERFILE.DIM_TRAN_TYPE.TRAN_TYPE_DESC
HEADING
"Year over Year Cons"
" "
" "
WHERE ( MASTERFILE.DIM_YEAR.YEAR GE &FromYear.().Year. ) AND ( WA_MASTERFILE.DIM_YEAR.YEAR LE &ToYear.().Year. );
ON GRAPH SET LOOKGRAPH VBRSTK1



Error:-

Yes, this will error out...

Your parameters &FromYear and &ToYear probably only contain a year.

hence you code gives an error:

GRAPH ...
SUM '&FromYear' NOPRINT
SUM '&ToYear' NOPRINT
...


Will translate to
GRAPH ...
SUM '2009' NOPRINT
SUM '2010' NOPRINT
...


You need:
SUM COMPUTE THISYEAR/I4 = &ThisYear

or something like that.


By the way

GRAPH...
SUM ...
SUM ...
SUM ...
ACROSS ...
BY ...


Are you sure?
Shouldn't that be:
GRAPH...
SUM ...
    ...
    ...
ACROSS ...
BY ...

( only 1 SUM verb )

G'luck
Dave

First fix your compute's.

The format is I4 and you try to put in something between '' ( which a format An )



( and this forum isn't a helpdesk, we're just fellow-users... )
