Hi All,
I am using Business Objects XI R2 version. I have a question.

I have a table with three columns like this

ID Name Salary
1 Siva 100
2 Raja 50
3 Raja 40

Now I have provided the users to select the name from the LOV.
Users can see the List of Names like this
Siva(1)
Raja(2)
Raja(3)
I want to pass the ID field when they select name to the database.
How can I pass ID field instead of Name?
ANy help would be much aprreciated
 
You can do this using the index aware capability in Designer. You tell it what fields to use this with and it works great.

Steve,

Browsing through the forums and spotted your post... This is a fantastic tip, not used the index aware function before seems to speed up my query execution time..

Have a star
