In the simple case one could say</P><P>that it is what appears on the x-axis in a standard</P><P>bar chart. Normally a dimension consists of a field</P><P>but it may also be a group or a calculated expression.</P><P></P><P>expression:</P><P>A formula. Expressions can be used in a number</P><P>of places in QlikView: In the load script, in charts,</P><P>as dynamic labels, in text boxes, etc.</P><P></P><P>Regards,</P><P>Stefan</P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 24 Sep 2011 16:49:54 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/What-is-difference-between-dimension-and-expression/m-p/288005#M107138 swuehl 2011-09-24T16:49:54Z What is difference between dimension and expression https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/What-is-difference-between-dimension-and-expression/m-p/288006#M107139 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Dear Stefan</P><P></P><P>Thanks for clearing Doubts.</P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 24 Sep 2011 17:38:26 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/What-is-difference-between-dimension-and-expression/m-p/288006#M107139 2011-09-24T17:38:26Z
