Column display on shared librarys

Question

Ok I have a Mac as a Itunes server and a Mac Mini as an AV computer, great so far, however ever since one of the latter 9.x iTunes upgrades it ability to freely arrange the column's e.g. artist album track display order of the shared library has now stopped working. My question is why?
Also how do you get rid of ping?

Answer 1

Every column in a report has an option for a conditional display.
Let's say your select statement is something like this:
SELECT first_name, last_name, date_of_birth
FROM employees
Create a LOV containing the your column names:
first_name, last_name, date_of_birth.
On your report page you would create a checkbox - p1_columns. This checkbox can
have a default value first_name:last_name:date_of_birth
For each of your report columns you have to determine a conditional display. You can
do it in the following way:
For the column first_name select SQL Expression as condition type and in the
Text Area Expression 1 enter the following condition:
INSTR(:p1_columns, 'first_name') > 0
Repeat this for all the other columns.
Create a submit button to submit your choice.
This way you can unselect the columns you don't want to display. The result can be exported into
excel as displayed.
