Hi,

Why have you posted this in the Announcements section? Wouldn't it have been a better idea to ask a question about Report Studio in the Report Studio section?

I shall move the post for you...

Ok - now we're in the Report Studio section, let's see...

Can you see the Context filter area in the top right corner? Do you see how it says "Drop members here to create a context filter"? That gives you a good clue what to do. You select the member or members from the package you want your report's numbers in context of, and you drop them in the Context filter area. Drag and drop. Simple. :)

The finer points of forum software seem to be eluding our new member pankaj since there are multiple posts on the same topic and they are continually placed in the Announcements section rather than on the appropriate boards.

Although he chose to ignore the answer in this thread and instead post again asking the same thing elsewhere, I decided to reply here.

The context filter is only available when working with a dimensional package. It is not present when working with a relational package.
