Thread: Conditionally View Details

Conditionally View Details Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Here's the scenario, I have a report with lots of detail data. For the most people want to see the summaries of this detail data. But at times they would like to view all of the detail data (not just drill down)

Is there any way to add a link or something to a report that will show/hide the details section as a user is viewing the report? I've done this through parameters, but I don't want to have the user reenter all parameters just to hide or show detail data.

Thanks,
John G.

Can a report refresh itself? If so you could place the parameters as fields in the report and place a button that simply refreshes the report using the new parameters. If you didn't want to allow all of them to be edited, just use a boolean to supress the detail section. I believe all of this is possible but I've never taken the time to try it out. I would spend a lot of time tinkering so I usually just copy the report and make a separate version.

Where would a button be added to a report? Or are you talking about adding the button along the top with the nav, refresh and other buttons?

Thanks,

Something in the report itself which used scripting to set the "use details" boolean or parameters and refresh the report automatically. If a button isn't a valid control, I think something else should be able to work at least in theory.
