Hi all,

I have a unique query, I would like to believe :P

Basically, suppose you have a report like this:

product Quantity  Price
      A    |    50     |  $100
     B     | 60        |   $200
            |             |
and so on

is it possible to make the report look like this?


product Quantity  Price
  Cognos Approved   
     
      A    |    50     |  $100
     B     | 60        |   $200
            |             |

i.e. use text (in the above example it's Cognos Approved) just after the column headings, and before the rows start?

I tried with repeaters, without any success

Hi,

Sounds like a job for the List Page Header.  Just go to the toolbar and press the 'List Headers & Footers' button, and from here you can turn on a List Page Header.  This will add a header cell below the column headings, and you can populate this with whatever text you like.

Does that give you what you need?

Meep!

MFGF,

Once again, your suggestion worked like a charm. THANKS

I'm beginning to think that I may have to ship over a part of my salary every month to Cognoise ;D

Sorry Arsenal/Darek, but I will not be able to make the long trek across the Atlantic to Orlando in May.  My employer has other things for me to be doing at the time.  I'd love to go and meet up with a few friends over a beer - perhaps another year.

Thanks for the offer  :)

Meep!

1500 freakin dollars to attend

Anything that carries the Cognos name on it sure as hell doesn't come cheap :-\
