do you still see dimension object italicized when you click on anohter dimension objects ? if ‘yes’ then dimension objects are not properly linked yet.


kool :nepal: (BOB member since 2005-04-15)

yes
you are right, iam looking when i click one object . another object is hiding.

could i create variable or what

go to view data -> Results
double click on dimension object from 1st dp
a new window pops up
single click on appropraite dimension object to link with 1st dp.
follow the same steps to all dimension objects that you want to link.
click ok
you are good to go … for more information refer to PDF file. (Help -> BO user giude )

Create detail variables from your dimensions (not linking IDs / fields) and associate them with the relevant ID for each data provider and use those in your report.
