HELPPP!!!!

I've been stuck updating an ancient MicroStrategy v6.5 project. Only problem is I can't remember how to get a metric threshold to stay put after defining it for a given report. I can define the threshold when the report is produced, but even saving the result out as a template does not retain the threshold setting for the metric on the report. The v6.5 help seems to indicate thresholds can be set on the metric edit window, but all I see is a checkbox to enable stoplighting.

Any of you old-timers out there still using v6.5 or remember what the trick is ?

TIA,

Nevermind,
It was a setting in the DSS file called MetricParser=OFF in order to get the ability to configure highlighting on the metric. Go figure.

Oh well...at least this cancer won't be spreading any further.
