Hi, i am using multiple variable expressions to create a report. This involves variable expressions referencing other variable expressions.
Are there any limits to the amount of times this can be done?
The reason i ask is that i have tried to replace a field with a variable expression and this has meant my final expression is now returning zero - if i revert back to the field the expression works.
There may be a limit at some point, but a variable inside a variable should work. I have a variable that is like:
And that works just fine. Are you sure your variable is returning the correct values. You may be able to see what it returns using a Text Object or a chart expression without a label.=If(FIELD='VALUE', var1, var2)
i have several variables within variables that are working fine.
I have one final variable that adds two previous ones together - this starts to return zero if i add more variable expressions into some of the previous variables i have.
All the other variablesi have are still returning the correct values
Hi,
Depending on the expressions in your variables, you may have a quoting issue. In other words, a mixture of double or single quotes that are conflicting with each other. Worth a look.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you need any clarification.
Thanks
Nick
Hi, I have some if statements that use single quotes - however the expressions i am modifying do not use any quotations.
