[CLOSED] Guided Adhoc Question
How does one alter the column names in a guided ad hoc? I built one, now I want to alter the column titles...I do so and changes are NOT recognized and further my base report somehow comes back with all column titles the same!

Also, how do I tell the guided ad hoc when I want subtotals?

Thanks!

hello,
Guided Adhoc are mainly used and there is no limitations with them.
if your columns choices are in a listbox, you can enter as a value during the creation : COUNTRY AS 'Pays' and just display Pays.
It's the same if your columns are in dropdown, check bowes...
For subtotal, you can test a variable in order to do or not the subtotal using dialogue Manager like :

-IF &SUBTOTAL1 EQ 'N' GOTO NOSUB1 ;
ON &SORT1 SUBTOTAL AS 'Total'
-NOSUB1

&SORT1 = Sort field 1.

Try different conbinaisons, sort1 = country, sort2 = BODY_TYPE, sort3 = Model and activate or not the subtotal

I'll have to absorb all the code on sorting..I am dissapointed there is not something in the gui that will allow it.

As far as column names..I think its actually simpler than I made it sound.

Lets say my master file has an item called: DEPARTMENTNUMBER and DEPARTMENTNAME.

On a typical report, I'd drag these onto the report and change the column title to: DeptNbr and DeptNm. When I do that with the guided adhoc then amperstand these fields with what ever else is a sort field..I can run the report and see these *new* column titles BUT....when I close the report and return the the procedure...every column title is somehow changed to DeptNbr (or whatever the first column I changed was)

It's not you.

Once you put BY fields and detail fields and measures (counts, sums, etc) in parameter groups, you cannot use the column title feature of Report Painter, version 7xxxx (not 8, haven't seen 8). Even if you look at the FOCUS code there is no straightforward way to add it. This was confirmed to me by an instructor. I also just submitted a case illustrating the problem. Here is the answer:

"We are aware of this, and it is a current limitation when using parameter grouping and column titles.

The workaround is to simply use the TITLE attribute inside the Master file for which you would like to create a Guided Adhoc Form."

So, it's not you. Once you put fields in parameter groups you can't use the column title feature of the GUI, and there's no small, straighforward bit of code you can insert into the FEX to get that functionality back. It's how they implemented grouping.

Hope this helps.
