Hi guys!


I’m trying to get a comment to hover over a column name on a HTML report. I’ve tried to set variables (i.e. -SET & COLTITLE = '< span title="This is my hover text">Column Name< /span>' ; METRIC AS & COLTITLE) and I keep getting because of the quotes in the variable.

So now I’ve gone down the path of trying something with tooltip. I‘ve tried this:
$
TYPE=TITLE,
COLUMN=N10,
JAVASCRIPT=void(0),
ALT=' This is my hover text ',
COLOR='BLACK',

This will allow the text to hover over the column name, but it looks like a hyperlink.

Does anybody know a way that can remove the hyperlink (look) to the tooltip code? Or does anybody know how to get around the errors I’m getting because of the quotes?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Use Dialog Manager to create the span:
-SET &TITLE_MSG =
-  '<span style="cursor: default;" ' | 'title=''This is a Country''>Country</span>';


TABLE FILE CAR
  SUM
    SALES           AS 'Sales'
    BY COUNTRY      AS '&TITLE_MSG'
  ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
END

I've tried something similar:

-SET &BASEDATENAME = 'Recovery Identified Month';

&BASEMETRIC/D12B AS &BASEAMTNAME.QUOTEDSTRING

Problem is that it keeps giving me an unkown error. When I remove the code the procedure works.

Anybody have any other ways of doing this?

It looks like the error that I was getting from from something else, but because it was an unkown error I thought that it was related to the qoutes. Your suggestion works.

Thanks.
