Hi All,

I want to set a field on opening of the document.

The field is not a filter,

How can i do it.

I tried to do it with the help of trigger, but it is not happening.

Thanking in advance.

It should work by creating a trigger for Document Properties in Field Even Trigger.

Can you provide sample data file?

Hi,

Go to Sheet Property->Triggers->OnActivateSheet->Add Actions->Add->Action Type(Selection)->Select in Field->Ok.

Then in Field column ->write field name.

Search Field->write field which you want to select on open.

Actually the QVuser() is returning 'Undefined',

so i am not able to user this function to get to know the name of the cal, which is currently accessing the file.

Hi Ashfaq,

Thanks for your reply.

I want 1 clarification.

When we access a report through Web-browser, we have to give some username and password.

As per my knowledge, it is the CAL which is we need to provide.

I want to know, how can I get this CAL(If above thing is right)

or is there anything else,I need to do in server side configuration.

thanks in advance.

Hi,

It really depends on type of authentication or authorization you use.

In order to open any document via web you need a licence either document cal or named cal.

for more details, Please go through the attached fie.
