Help with condition of list box and text box

Hi ,

I need help with conditional enabling of the text box.

Count and YEAR as default selection on open.

I should not be able to select Total Policies or STATUS , when YEAR and Count are selected. If I select any of these two fields , I should get the error message in the place of table .

Similarly, if I select STATUS and Total Policies, I should not be able to select YEAR and Count fields. If I select, I should get the error message.

QTR can be selected in any of the scenario.

Condition needed is:

The error message text box should enable only when wrong selections made and not always. Please help with conditional enabling of the text box.

Thanks in Advance

I think it may be easier to define Field event triggers on _DIM that clear possible selections 'Total Policies' and 'STATUS' selections whenever 'YEAR' or 'Count' are selected, and vice-versa. The number of possible combinations in your solution may cause you to create unmanageable IF() calls...

Hi Patel,

For me ur requirement is not clear.

Scenerio1:

You should not be able to select Total Policies or STATUS , when YEAR and Count are selected.


if it is true then what basis you will select the Total Policies or STATUS? and why u required error message because ur requirement is u should not be able to select the Total Policies or STATUS?


Scenerio2:

You should not be able to select YEAR and Count , when Total Policies and STATUS are selected

same comments vice verse.


Please find the attached application.


What I have done,

You will not be able to select Total Policies or STATUS , when YEAR and Count are selected and vice versa.


Hope it will be helpful to you.

Hi Peter, as you said, its has become too confusing and complicated for making selections. I made two tabs, one for 'YEAR and Count' and the other for 'STATUS and Total Policies' so that there is no choice of selections . QTR is available in both tabs.

Also, it would be great if you can please make the changes as per your option of'clear possible selections' to the qvw I have attached to my original post. It would be helpful for me to learn.

Thanks
