ITS BEEN A LONG DAY..... I'M JUST GOING CRAZY... Everything is fine, the reprts are working perfectly. Once again, Thank you [2thumbsup] [pc3]

vijay, I have a problem!! Using the method you told me, everything works perfect. But since I don't want the "extra columns" in my report. I chose to "hide" the unwanted columns. Now, when I use a prompt to pick a Start date and a End date for the Query, all of my totals...

Please be more specific. Your questions is too general.

I find that hard to believe as well. You might have a memory leak. Make sure you don't have a lot of applications running and disable software you don't use often during startup. Once all that is done, try opening Cognos before anything else and see if there are any changes. Chances are, it...

Thanks a lot!! It works out perfectly. I started using sub-reports and got the results I wanted but this saves so much spaces and time. Thanks again.

If I do a count initally for "M%" and "F%" like you said, it would count everything in my report that starts with M and F, not just Male and Female.Or am I wrong?

Hi ALL, This might be an easy question, but for some reason I'm going crazy over it. Say for example, I have a report which is a list of: Animals, Date Purchased, Age, Weight, Gender, etc. In the header, I want to insert a calculation where I can state the quantity(count) of each gender. For...

I'm using portfolio as a menu to launch a few reports. I was wondering if it is possible to make the reports read-only. Is there an option(properties, etc) that will allow me to accomplish this. I only wants these particular reports to be read-only, not everything associated with Cognos...

[Refering to the last two responses] Does anyone know a solution to this problem, or is it my best bet to go another route? Any suggestion is welcome. Thanks all!!

Kevin, I tried this, but it only opens up the first report. In other words. Once I change it to "si" and launch a report in portfolio, the first report(which ever I choose) opens up w/o a problem. Now when I try to open up a second report, it takes me back to Impromptu with the...

Keep in mind that I am using Portfolio: Anyone know why, each time I launch a report, a new instance of Impromptu is opened up. Which means the user has to enter the user ID and Password all over again. Any one know how I can make it open multiple reports in one instance of Impromptu rather than...

Thanks!! X-) As I'm sure you already guessed by now, I'm extremly new to this software. Thanks for your patience. Take care all!! Jeff

Sorry all, but one last question: Adam, When I go to the startup tab I see a check box for: "Start in Full Screen View" but nothing for "View Mode". In other words, When I open up the file, its opens up in a full screen (which is good) but it is still in author view. (Now...

Thanks everyone for all your help!! :-V Amit- My "Open Report.mac" got corrupted some how. So I didn't even get a chance to try out your method. But as soon as I get the software cd back, I shall reinstall the file and try it, Thanks, Kev-Thats a great idea. When I finish...

I used portfolio to make a menu: 2 Question... About the portfolio tool, I was wondering, is it possible to save it under "View Mode" instead of "Author Mode" so each time you open it up, you wouldn't have to switch to "Author" for the launch buttons work? Also, is...
