Sort problem

Postby jollt » Mon Aug 08, 2011 3:21 pm

Hi,

I see it's possible to sort dynamicaly the columns (an do a lot of drag and drop cool stuff) by clicking on the header of the column
It's working while I work in DAI, but it does not work when I call the report from my application
My version is the 6.4.31

Do I have to activate something to make this work by the users?

Thanks,

best regards,

Jérôme

Hi Jerome,

Do your users have design privileges? Specifically on this report?
Does the report specify that ownership is required to change groupings? etc. ("Column actions" is also a specific design privilege.)

These design permissions might be the issue.

Jerome,

I call reports from Visual Dataflex applications -- but in my case I restrict design access -- for some I hide the filters, for some I completely hide the navigation pane -- no "go" button, etc.

I think what you are trying to do should work -- but I will test and see if it works for me.

Bob

Hi Jerome,

I did a quick test calling a report directly from a URL, like,
"http://localhost/ai6/ai.asp?UID=VPApplication&PW=**********&DAI_R=3894"

The report ran, I drilled down to details, and was able to click on columns and sort. The drag-and-drop gesture for doing the sort did not work for me, but the direct column-click action worked fine for sorting. I tried some other drag-and-drop gestures, such as lower left to group by column and that worked fine.

I still think its a rights issue. If directly in Dyanamic AI, you "run as" the username that you specify when calling the report from you application, can you perform any of the on-screen sort and design functions? If not, then its a rights issue.

Regards,
Bob

Correction! The drag-and-drop gesture to sort did work for me -- once I used the correct one! :oops:
(Just a little distracted this morning....)
