You can try to simplify things by resolving it on the cube level, hence resolving it at the Universe level, there by avoiding complications at WebI or ZABO clients. "If you think you can't then you can't. If you think you can you might just be able to."

A concern came through the server end..... If it is deployable on InfoView.. Does the platform it resides (Windows / Unix) matter? In other words will it work on Windows and Unix by just placing the "xdac" files?

Point taken, and as an added bonus, once the locdata files are passed to each WebI server, does this mean that Zabo users will be able to refresh the reports from their machines? or would we have to pass the same files to those users? Thanks.

Currently have an assignment to use stored procedures to retrieve pre-calculated data from the Database. I have created the local connection to the database, I have rights from supervisor to call stored procedures, and I'm getting the desired result sets for the assignment, however I'm looking...

First check on the Universe to see if it is a date column, or date with time stamp. Second, if it is a time stamp, then you should check on the query so that it reflects the time stamp. A way around it, is that if it is a time stamp, you can create an object in the universe that only picks the...

Problem solved....

Check out the FAQ tab in this forum... It will give you the avenue for passing parameters across reports.

I do thank you for your idea, however the argument was that it used to work with no problems via InfoView using the [ctrl+c] keys and [ctrl+v] into PPT. without having to use any image alteration. I did find a machine in my building that does not have a problem using the windows clipboard to...

The main problem of it all is that the big wigs want the churned information pasted on a PPT for their review every week, and gray scale does not buy much attention. This is something that the corporate has driven a standard on. They love to see result sets on PPT. Any solutions would be...

We currently go to InfoView (Viewing settings on Optimized for my browser) and use the copy command [Ctrl+C] keys and paste into PowerPoint. However it seems to paste into PowerPoint in Gray-scale. Has anyone come across with this issue and if a solution is available. In the interim, we...
