Hi,
I am working on Cognos 8.4 .  I have the tree prompt in prompt page with structure: Level 1 -> Level 2 -> Level 3. The high level will have one or more children node. I want to display detail page if I selected the node from level 1 and level 2. When I selected level 3, the detail page will be invisible. How can I do it?

Thanks

Create a Conditional Variable based on the Level, that will return either a True False (Boolean) or a string, that can be interogated for use as a Render Variable for the Detail page. 

In essence, you are setting up to: Render the Detail page only when the Condition is appropriate.

Hi,

   I used a data item (TreeLevel) to check level of tree. It ran well .However, when I aplied my data item with render variable, I received this error message:
'An error ocurred at or near the position '0'. The variable named 'Query5.Treelevel' is invalid.'

How can I resolve it?

Thanks

You need to associate that query item to the page. Navigate to the page level and set the Query property to your query. Then select the "Properties" property and place a check mark for your TreeLevel query item.

Hi

   It worked for me. However, I see the page is not invisible really. I can not see data in page but a blank page is still showed. How can this blank page disappear?

Thanks
