How to replace the values of a dimension with text?

Hi All,

I was wondering if anybody know if there is a way to replace the values in a dimension in a straight table, so that instead of showing the actual values of the dimension a text string is shown in the table column?

In my situation i have a source table that looks something like this:

sales1sales2euro
111000
222000
331500
443000

where sales1=sales2 (duplicate column but with different names).

        

What i would like to make is a straight table that look like this:

Open in ERPSales ordervalue
Open document11000
Open document22000
Open document31500
Open document43000

The 'Open in ERP' column should contain the values of source column sales1, but the real values should be hidden and instead the coulmn should only show 'Open document'. However when selecting for example 'Open document' on the first row,it should make a selection so that sales1=1.

Is this possible?

Take a look at the Dual() function in the F1 help. This and a mapping table to get the correct text values should help you.
