Title: Conditional Variabel in a Text Box
Post by: HERRERA on 10 Jan 2008 06:22:19 AM
Hi friends.

I have a report with a list and chart.
The list  contains three columns, and above i need to show a text message in accordance with the value of one of the columns.

When the column value is not Null, the message must be hide.

The problem is : When i create a conditional variable based in a field column and associate with a text box, i receive a message error.

Can i asssociate a style variable with a text box ? Is it possible ?

Im using a Cognos 8.1

Tks,
Herrera

Have you tried to just put the textbox in a table or a block, and hide the table/block based on the conditional variable?

Don't know if that works, never tried it, but give it a shot...
