Detaching a TextBox

Hello All,

Can we detach a Textbox?

We can detach a Chart object instead of by passing the values but is it possible in case of textbox?

Regards,

Balraj

You can bypass the selection by adding something more... like if you have customer and sales data is there but you dont want the selection of Country or Brand should affect your SUM(Sales) you can use

SUM({<Country = , Band = >} Sales)

or

SUM({1<Country = , Band = >} Sales)

Hi Balraj,

Yes, surely you can use.

Note: Do not  you the same alternate state of the other charts, it will surely work. I have used the same concept to achieve the detaching of text objects from other selection.

Please try with that, let me know if u face any issue.

Okay,

Got your point, you mean to say define a State say Detach in Alternate States and then we can use it in textbox.

It will not associate with any object untill or unless that object is not into same state.

Am I right?
