How to start a dashboard

josephinetedesc — Tue, 30 Jun 2015 13:11:58 GMT

I have 3 individual documents working nicely ... each page has a very top level page which should form part of the dashboard.

The contents of all 3 pages would have as a common variable the date (so Year, Month Year to date etc)

I can do a binary load of one of the documents (but only one is allowed???)

I have now realised the beauty of a QVD.

Is there some other way of importing the 3 top-level pages ...

And in my next post - which book should I buy

Hi Josephine, not sure to understand, I give you some hints hoping it helps in some way.

Binary load is used to load the model from another document (and yes, only one is allowed) but it doesn't copies any of the objects, just the data.

QVD also is used to load data.

If for top-level page you meant some objects of the document you can select them, copy and paste in the new document. With CTR+SHIFT+S all hiden objects turned to visible, wich is very usefull to copy objects from one document to another.

Ruben I am hoping it is as easy as that ... I cannot wait to get to work and try it out. Will let you know how I go.
