Unsure if this is possible or not....
On the majority of reports I have adopted a similar approach to an example report I downloaded some time ago called "Aesthetics_Demo_Brochure.qvw" where via the layout show option, I use a single tab with various pivot tables which are activated via a button which sets a variable.
I also apply this approach to the list box filters where the user can select date related filters when they click on the date button (for example).
The issue I have is that I have reports which I cannot convert to this model.
This means that I need to replicate the list box filters on each of the tabs throughout the report.
Is it possible to have a popup type window which would contain the respective filters.
This would mean that I would only have to put them in one place.
I have considered having them on a tab of their own but this means that user would be jumping back and forward between tabs.
As I said, unsure if this is possible or not but thought I would ask the question....
Hi Paul,
Why not use a Multi-Box with "Minimize" turned on (Caption tab of properties). Then users could pop it open from an icon.
Regards,
Stephen
Thanks for the response Stephen...
This could work and may be the answer to the issue...
I was hoping to avoid having to duplicate something on each tab and have a button which would ideally open a window with all the filters present.
Cannot always get what we want however....will bear this in mind if no-one else can think of another way...
Thank You.....
