i am working on a report in which i am creating a pivot table. in the pivot table the dimension used is hardcoded means is being created using an inline

. now in that table i am evaluating 12 different expressions as different columns and theses are like p1,p2.......p10.

p11= p10-p9 .

here i have to hanlde two situations.

1) where value is negative it must be red

2) instead of negative sign, () it must be used...for e.g -22 should be displayed like (22)

the other major challenge is for a particular row i have to show value upto two decimal places and for all others it must be an integer.

i have been able to do it in the all colums except p11.

i am using expression

(((p1-p2)),'#.#'),p1-p2)
and if(p2>p1,fabs(p1-p2))

buts its nt wrking...plz help

Hi,

This expression works:

if(num2>num1,fabs(num1-num2),num(fabs(num1-num2),'(#.#0)'))

for both ur conditions.

Hope it helps

Thanks,

Sup
