Conditional formatting in Impromptu

[dm21]

I am having promblem with conditional formatting in Impromptu.

I have one reports which uses few condtional formatting.
It works fine on my machine. But it disappears on user's machine.

Is there any other way I can handle this problem without having to change IMPROMPTU.ini on user's machine?

Because it would be quite annoying to update user's machine every time you have some changes to conditional formatting.

dm21,

Does your conditional formatting use custom styles? If so, that would explain the disappearing problem with the other computers. Custom styles are stored in the Impromptu.ini file. You will have to copy the version of that file from the computer that created the style onto the users computer, or manually recreate the style on their machines, in order for the conditional format to apply thoses styles.

Cognos has talked about fixing this for years, but it hasn't happened yet.
