Title a column based on a selection

Hi,

I'm using a number of set analysis expressions to generate some columns in a table. The displayed data is selected in list boxes all linked to alternate states.

My question is simply, how can I drive the labels of the columns to be the same as the selection made in the list box for that particular set of data?

I hope my explanation is OK. I've only been working with Qlikview for a short time.

Thanks,

Torsten.

Maybe use a label expression like

=only({ALTERNATESTATE} FIELD)

replace ALTERNATESTATE with the alternate state name and FIELD with the list box field name.

You can concatenate several of these functions to create more complex expression labels.

The suggestion of swuehl will work fine if you only select one value for the field, if multiple values are selected then you will need something like:

     =concat({[ALTERNATESTATE]} distinct [FIELD],', ')
