Grid API problem

Question

Hi, I sort of copied and pasted the example from Grid API doc. But the output doesn't produce as necessary.The result I get is:,Scenario,,,,,,,,,and I think it should be: , ,Year,Product,MarketActual, Sales, 333, , Any ideas ???Here is the Code: ( quite long but mostly copied from the example )#include <stdio.h>#include <essapi.h>#include <essgapi.h>ESSG_PPDATA_T BuildTable (ESSG_PRANGE_T pRange) ;ESSG_PPDATA_T AllocTwoDims (ESS_ULONG_T ulRows, ESS_ULONG_T ulCols) ;ESSG_VOID_T FreeTwoDim(ESSG_PPDATA_T ppDataToFree,ESSG_ULONG_T ulRows) ;int main(void) {     // Initialize API.     ESSG_FUNC_M sts = ESSG_STS_NOERR ;     ESSG_INIT_T InitStruct ;     ESSG_HANDLE_T Handle ;     ESSG_HGRID_T hGrid ;     InitStruct.ulVersion = ESSG_VERSION ;     InitStruct.ulMaxColumns = 1000 ;     InitStruct.ulMaxRows = 200 ;     InitStruct.pfnMessageFunc = ESS_NULL ;     InitStruct.pUserdata = ESS_NULL ;     sts = EssGInit(&InitStruct, &Handle) ;     if(sts != 0) {          printf("API Grid Init failed\n %d\n", sts) ;          return 0 ;     }     // Initialize Grid.     sts = EssGNewGrid(Handle, &hGrid) ;     if(sts != ESSG_STS_NOERR) {          printf("New Grid Init failed\n") ;          return 0 ;     }     // Data Retrieval.     ESSG_ULONG_T     ulRow, ulCol, ulOptions ;     ESSG_PPDATA_T     ppDataIn, ppDataOut ;     ESSG_RANGE_T     rRangeDataIn, rRangeDataOut ;     ESSG_USHORT_T     usState ;     /* Connect to Essbase and assigne to Grid */     sts = EssGConnect(     hGrid,                              "Sever",                              "Admin",                              "admin92",                              "username",                              "pass",                              ESSG_CONNECT_NODIALOG                         ) ;          if(sts == 0) {          ppDataIn = BuildTable(&rRangeDataIn) ;          ulOptions = 0 ;          sts = EssGBeginRetrieve(hGrid, ESSG_RET_RETRIEVE);     } else {               printf( "Connection Problem \n") ;               return 0 ;     }     if(sts == 0) {          sts = EssGSendRows(hGrid, &rRangeDataIn, ppDataIn) ;     } if (sts == 0) {                /* We're done sending rows, perform the retrieval */                sts = EssGPerformOperation(hGrid, 0);                        /* Free the data we built */                FreeTwoDim(ppDataIn, rRangeDataIn.ulNumRows);        }          if (sts == 0) {                /* Determine the results of the retrieve and how much data                 * is being returned.                 */                sts = EssGGetResults(hGrid, 0, &rRangeDataOut, &usState);        } if (sts == 0) {                /* Get all of the data */                sts = EssGGetRows(hGrid,0, &rRangeDataOut,                         &rRangeDataOut, &ppDataOut);        }          if (sts == 0) {                /* Interate though the data ... */                /* First the rows */                for (ulRow = rRangeDataOut.ulRowStart;                                ulRow < rRangeDataOut.ulNumRows;                                ulRow++)                {                        /* Then the columns */                        for (ulCol = rRangeDataOut.ulColumnStart;                                        ulCol < rRangeDataOut.ulNumColumns;                                        ulCol++)                        {                                /* Here's a cell ... just render it. */                                switch (ppDataOut[ulRow][ulCol].usType) {                                        // Renderint it. too big to post.                                }                                             printf(",");

Assuming there are no errors happening, it looks like the function you are using to output the results is not displaying the data properly.Could you post that function? It looks like it got truncated...Regards,Jade----------------------------------Jade ColeSenior Business Intelligence ConsultantClarity [email protected]
