Hi,

I'm creating a cognos report from the scratch on report studio,
what i did were: click report studio envi >> package >> list report >> i set all  the data items needed and the filters >> arrange the header >>

The problem was... when the time i'm doing the body of the report, I  CAN'T DRAG the DATA items at Work area... and a window appeared showing:

"The Insertion does not have an associate query"

I also checked the parameters, yet it doesn'T evolve:  the available components for PARAMETERS IS EMPTY..

I did put  a container within the body cell, yet i'm having a problem on column title...

You need to be careful where you land an object in the drag and drop proces. Cognos indicates this with the type of line in the GUI. Adding and nesting each have different linetypes associated with the action.
The add action shows a thick vertical blinking line with white line to the left and right!!

You are asking the same thing in multiple threads...
???

go to report pages in the page explorer.
highlight the page
go to properties section
there is a query section, click on that and highlight the query that has the data items you want to use.
