Thanks, all. Took me a little while to sort out all the places that had COMMAND arguments or parameteers (most seemed to be directives to the compiler or linkers), but I finally got there. Appreciate your help!

I'll look as you suggest too, Ion. Really appreciate the help, all.

Thanks, Matt. I'll take another look for this when I get home tonight. I thought I'd already looked where you suggest in your comment, but I may well have missed something.

Hello, I'm trying to learn C++ and am using Visual Studio.Net to reverse engineer/modify some open source code. The program is designed to run with 2 command line parameters. How do I specify test values for those parameters while in debug mode? I was able to hardcode a value into the code...

Thanks so much! I'll give that a try.

Is there a way to suppress BO recalculating everything in a document while doing format edits? If I so much as change the typeface to Bold for a cell, it takes a couple of minutes or so for me to get to the next edit. Also would like to build graphs this way, and then retoggle the recalculate...

This might be of interest to you as well. Assume you wish to have your second report show only data for one department at a time, but you wish to use that same report for all departments to make printed, HTML or PDF copies of the report. Rather than setting the filter by hand, you can use a...

Not sure if you mean a specific report, or all the reportd that happen to be in a document. Can you get to VBA after you've opened the report? From there, you can see what all the dataproviders are in the document, and what database, Personal datafile or universe each dataprovider uses. If you...

Hello, I'd like to read the values contained in a dataprovider cube and put them into an array in VBA. (From there, I'll apply some additional data processing and put the data into a new cube using a VBA Stored Procedure). Now, I see how to read the number of rows and the columns names from...

Hello, I have a report that shows by month what a particular metric is (pulled from the database), and what a target value is (last year's measure). I break the report into sections by year. For 2001, all months show becasue there is data in the database for those months. This data also is...

Is there a way on the report side (without using VBA) to make a table that dynamically lists the names of all the data providers you may have? I see a function are available for returning the number of data providers, and a function for returning the name of the data provider which returns a...

Well, I'm surprised there has never been a response to this question. I too would like to know the answer. Can anyone help?

Given that I had a careless typo, (we CAN'T see the other two universes of interest when we try to create a new data provider), I think you understood fine. Are you saying that the separate universes must be put into the same repository? Each universe has a separate development team and is...

Several of us here have access to three different BO implementations. These implementeations were developed by different groups. When we start BO, we pick which database we wish to log onto, log on , and begin our session. We'd like to be able to bring data into one session from two of the...

There's an awful lot I do not understand about BO, and I don't have access to the developer components, but in our set up, the ESC key doesn't seem to do anything until the query has actually started to return results from the server. If the query on the server side is still running, hitting...
