variables and Set Analysis

Thu, 24 Oct 2013 17:18:33 GMT

Can I hide entire set analysis expressions in variables, and then use just the variable in the chart expression tab?

Example: (I used "<=" to represent assignment)

vFixedYear <= 2009

vSelectedYear <= =GetFieldSelections(Year)

myVar <= =Sum({1<Year = {$(vFixedYear), $(vSelectedYear)}>} Sales)

And then use myVar in the expressions tab INSTEAD of the set analysis expression that I assigned to myVar?

Sure you can do that.

Assign myVar<= Sum({1<Year = {$(vFixedYear), $(vSelectedYear)}>} Sales) //Removed the equal symbol before the sum.

But if I leave out the '=' then the value stored in myVar is merely a string that is the set analysis expression. Maybe I'm missing something. Ideas?
