Sharing data between 2 nested DWs: a graphic DW and a crosstab DW
I got a composite DW with lots of nested DWs. Among them, I have a graph DW and a crosstab DW with the same SQL. As the amount of lines retrieved is above 20,000, I'd like to share the data between the 2 nested DWs. First, I put an argument in each one, so the graph DW brings all the lines, and the crosstab DW brings none. Then, after the retrieve of the composite DW, I get both datawindowchild and run ROWSCOPY from the graph to the crosstab (sharedata doesn't work for crosstab). After that, run SORT and GROUPCALC for the crosstab DW. The lines are copied, but the crosstab DW ...

Crosstab datawindow #2
On a Crosstab datawindow, I use an expression to set both the Background.color and the color property for a column. When I run the application from PowerBuilder (version 6.5) everything works fine. However when I build an exe, the expression setting the Background.color property fails and the background for this column always appears as black. The font color though is okay. Does anyone know why the exe behaves differently. The application runs on Winodws NT 4.0 When you program behaves differently when you create the Exes this for me has always meant that you have the wrong...

Crosstab DW #2
How can i get the column names in a Crosstab DW, is there an example or some code you can provide me? I would appreciate your help Vladimir To get the list of columns you can do count = integer(dw_x.Describe("DataWindow.Column.Count")) for i = 1 to count name[i] = dw_x.Describe("#" + string(i) + ".name") next if by columns you mean columns and expressions then you would do tab_list = dw_x.Describe("DataWindow.Objects") then parse that tab separated list and check objects types using construct like type[i] = dw_x.Describe(object...

PowerBuilder DataWindow #2
Hi all, I have a requirement to implement a master-detail sheet. That's ok. However, based on the user-logged-in credential, the user may OR may not be able to edit the details part. Now I can easily implement this by adding a constraint while updating the details' data. if user_can_edit then update end if The problem is this: If the user is not entitled to make changes, he is still able to put focus to the details' form data and modify (of course I am not updating it)...but the user can get a feeling "oh I am able to modify the data". Is it so...

how to update crosstab datawindow #2
Hi, I hear that crosstab datawindow can be updated,but how to do ? Thanks in advance sunjie Sunjie, You need to export the datawindow, add tab order to the columns you want editable, and then re-import it again. This would make the fields editable, e.g., if you have a computed field on it, you would see the value change as you edit a field which is referenced by the computed expression. Making the datawindow ** updateable ** is another issue, which I'm not exactly sure about. I'll try to experiment with it and post my findings. -- pbm_hopethishelps, Roy Ki...

Sorting a crosstab dw #2
Hi all. I have a crosstab DW that is sorted by its first column, both in the sql sentence and in the DW itself. Once retrieved it is not shown in the correct sort order. I looks like the sort order is done separately for each column across. Is this normal?. Is there a way to force a sort order after the retrieve() is complete? SetSort() and Sort() don't seem to work. TIA -- Diego Marrero Vega Tecnolog�as www.vegati.com 922-825052 667-515-517 1) It's pointless to have sort specified "both in the sql sentence and in the DW itself" 2) You might need to...

crosstab datawindow problem #2
I'm trying to add a second value column that uses the last() function. PB lets me save the crosstab definition, but if I try and run the app using this definition, or when I close and re-open the datawindow in the dev environment, I get a GPF. Using the count() method seems to work fine. Is there a known issue with the first/last/min/max methods (tried 'em all) in crosstabs? I'm using v7.03 build 10063. ...
