Hi all,
I'm working on an existing application, and in one of the DataWindows there is a computed object that has this simple expression:
sum( direct_1 for group 1)

My question is how do I determine which columns are in group 1. Another problem is that the datawindow contains tons of data so viewing it is a pain as is.

thanks in advance,
Mike
 
Is the group number not written in each group separator?

I sometimes use the following trick when I look for something in "tons" of data in a DW:

select the DW in the library and "export".

You then get a text file in which you can analyse some stuf in a much more easy way.
You can even make systematic changes with eg Word macros and then re-import the DW in your library (!! this will replace your original DW without warning !!)

Good luck
 
great little trick, that really helps.

thanks,
mike
