Title: New query subject
Post by: paloalto_cognos on 30 Jul 2010 01:19:36 PM
Hi,

I need help in solving the problem where I have to change the datatype of a query item in query subject. I do not to change it from DB.

So I created a new query subject by merging the existing query subject in FM as I could not change the datatype from char to integer in the original query subject using edit definiton. but when I try to delete the old or original one , the new is getting invalidated.

How to delete that query subject or can I publish the package with out any relationship to that original query subject . Please advise.....

If you cannot change datatype, try to force it by using a cast of your field..
