How make a selection in a Pivot table from a button depending on expression values

Hi foolks,

I have a pivot table which in one expression holds the change in %.

I want to select just those rows which has a positive change.

My idea is to write a macro and loop through the pivot table and check if that column has a positive number. If so get the value from the first dimension and store that in an array and use that to make a selection on that field.

My first little problem is to convert from the text 4,8% into the double 4,8.

I've tried several conversion functions but cannot find any one that works in the Qlikview environment.

Any suggestions?

function SelectTG1(criteria)
'first sort the table on TG1
' SortTG1Func()

 set chart = ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject("CH03")

 set table = ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject( "CH03" )
 for RowIter = 1 to table.GetRowCount-1
 set tg1Change= table.GetCell(RowIter,11)
 set cell = table.GetCell(RowIter,0)
 if(NOT cell.IsNull AND cell.Length) THEN
 'remove editing characters and convert text to a number
 set current_value=CDbl(replace(tg1Change.text,"%",""))
 msgbox(tg1Change.Text)
 msgbox(current_value)
 END IF

 next
end function

brgds

Hi again,

I've left the idea of looping through the table since it just has to simpler than that.

I've created a small example with a very small Pivot-table. What I try to accomplish is to select just the rows which has positive values in the right column "summed values".

I've included a very small macro with just one row:

ActiveDocument.GetField("ID").Select ActiveDocument.Evaluate("sum(VALUE)'>'&0")

but it doesn't work at all. Anyone know how to do this in Qlikview?
