Using GetFieldSelections function to name tabs

Fri, 31 May 2013 19:49:14 GMT

Hi all,

I'm trying to name my tabs dynamically based on user selections in a list box. I have a field "Category1" and the following expression in my tab title:

='Slide 6 (Spend Breakdown - ' & GetFieldSelections(Category1) & ')'

The GetFieldSelections function isn't properly working - it's returning Null. I also tested the GetSelectedCount() function with no luck - it returns zero.

When I put the same expression in a text box or graph title ON the tab page, it works as expected. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Paul

Hmm mine must have something to do with states. I'm using a specific state on this tab - but I have the list box and tab both set to said state. When I set the state of the tab to "Inherited" and change a global list box in another tab, the title formula works as expected.

Not sure why it won't work with the state I created.
