Relate two straight tables?

Thu, 15 Jul 2010 15:17:11 GMT

Hi there,

I am into quite a challenge now: I have a straight table showing some data, where one of the columns is actually a barcode. As it seems not to be possible to change the font of 1 column, I am trying to solve this in a different way. For now, I am trying to display the barcode in a new straight table (with the correct font [:)] ), but how can I ever relate the data in this table with the other table? The biggest problem with this is that the user can interactively sort the data in the first table!

Anyone has a solution for this? Or maybe point me into some other direction to fix this??

Thanks!

It's the same field in both UI objects. It's not required any additional relations. It doesn't matter how you present the data for the same field in different object, the DATA is still the same.
Maybe you are talking about something else. What do you really want to do?

Hi Marco,

I've attached a a sample of something you could do.

I'm not too sure how to change the text of 1 dimension, but you could always change the formatting. - At least it stands out from the rest of the dimensions/expressions.

Nick,

The problem I have is not the DATA, but the sort order of the data. Sure I can relate 2 UI objects based on its data, but how to do that if I do not know the sort order?

Xena,

In this way you can indeed change color / style and the like, but not the font..
