Hi,
I want to change data item names that are displayed in the output in reportstudio.
So i did change them in properties of each data item. But when i ran the report they are not effected. The names are still the original ones in the congnos viewer.

any help?
Thank you.
 
You can simply change the label of the dataitem. If the label is empty, then cognos will use the name of the dataitem. An existing label will be used when available.

Thanks blom0344.

It worked. But i don't know why it did't take the names before?
Thank you.
 
I do not understand what you did in the first place and where, though you must always be aware of caching issues with Cognos (especially with stored HTML pages)
