Current Selections with Alternate state

Hi All,

I need help with current selection box. I want to display inherited or alternate state in the same CS box or simultaneously when I select one of these field. Not sure if its doable or not in QV?  In my current QVW file, I have quarter end date and two alternate states using the quarter end date field. These 2 alternate states are used to compare Quarter end date activities.

For example:

QtrDate = 6/30/15;3/31/15

State1=6/30/15  (as Current)

State2=3/31/15 ( as Prior)

With CS Box in “inherited” – If I selected “QtrDate” , it will shows on the CS Box but not State1 and State2 unless I update it to the
state that I want to display CS.

Any inputs will be greatly appreciated!!

Many Thanks,

Frank

May be use something else rather than Current Selection Object for showing the current selections. Look here for alternatives available: Current Selection Alternatives

You can create your own custom selections box by adding a text object with e.g. (the state option in getcurrentselections was added in 11 SR5 I think, so this will not work in older versions)

=GetCurrentSelections()&'

'&GetCurrentSelections(Chr(13)&chr(10),':',',',100,'Alt1')
