Prompting user for column display.

Hi
I have a situation here. say I have 3 columns street,city and country.
Is tehre any way to prompt the user and display all or few of these columns?
like prompt the user asking if they want to see all 3 columns or just city and country or country and display those columns alone in the report. Please let me know what you think.

Thanks
Koushik.

It’s possible, but alot of work.

You can do this using a series of prompts and alerts. But, you’ll also have to deal with a bunch of if-then-else statements on your report.

Or, you could undertake a BIG SDK task.

Wouldn’t it be easier to just have multiple tabs in the document that each have a different level of detail?
