Hide one column when filter applied on dimension

My client has his weird requirement. She wants to hide one measure in pivot table when the filter is used for one dimension. Is there any way this can be achieved by MDX?

Hi, Aleksandr,
Sorry for the misleading.
However, what they want is not hide the unit level for the measure. They wanted the entire [Measures].[YourMeasureName] to be null or blank when only some units of the unit level are select.
Foe example, when I use filter in my pivot table to select only campus X, dept Y, branch Z, and Unit U1 (there are U1, U2, U3 in branch Z), the entire column [Measures].[YourMeasureName] disappear or null.
I know it sounds crazy and confusing. But that's what they want.
Any suggestion?
Thank you!

How to hide one column in Alv if it doesnt contain any value

Hi,
In alv Grid if one coulmn doesnt conatin any value.I doesnt want to display in ALV grid.Is dat possible. Plz help.

Hello Anu
When you prepare your fieldcatalog check the column of the output itab for its contents, e.g.:
" Itab GT_FCAT contains fieldcatalog.
" Itab GT_OUTTAB contains ALV list data.
" Condition: column "MY_COLUMN" should contain at least single value > 0
LOOP AT gt_outtab TRANSPORTING NO FIELDS
                 WHERE ( my_column > 0 ).
    EXIT.
ENDLOOP.
IF ( syst-subrc NE 0 ). " Column "MY_COLUMN" contains no value > 0, then hide column
    READ TABLE gt_fcat INTO ls_fcat
              WITH KEY fieldname = 'MY_COLUMN'.
    IF ( syst-subrc = 0 ).
      ls_fcat-no_out = 'X'. " not displayed, but visible in layout
      ls_fcat-tech = 'X'.     " not displayed, not available in layout
      MODIFY GT_FCAT FROM ls_fcat INDEX syst-tabix.
    ENDIF.

Hi Jyothy,
1.Define a Sequence Generator
2. Define a fuction ETL_ID_FN.
The function definition should be as follows.
Get the "Next Val" of Sequence generator and pass that value as a return value.
3. Import the funciton into OWB.
4. Open your mapping.
5. Use Constant Operator
6. Define a variable
7. In the defintion of varaible, call the imported function.
8. Validate it.
9. Assign it to the field whichever you want to.

Reorder or hide columns when exporting

Hello,
When woking with Reports and previewing it before sent to the client, may appear the desire to change the report before sanding.
by ex, one of our customers says: "This would be a nice extension of the column hiding & reordering capability, and would help with customers' requests that their reports come with certain data "eliminated."
I work mainly with the CrstalReports "ReportClass:ReportDocument" class.
Well, is there a possibility to hide some columns (when exporting)? To reorder them?
thanks.

How to hide multiple columns in multicolumn listbox like as an excel sheet?

Hello All,

Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much.
But I have total 12 columns and I don't want to delete columns serially. I want to delete inbetween columns, like in attached VI I want to delete column A & D only.
And in this user have to select it from frontpanel. I want this is to be done as in excel, like we select the entire column and either we hide it or delete it. One more thing I want to clear the data in multicolumn when I next time open my VI. How to do that?
I hope am clear in explaining my problem.
Thanks & Regards,

This is Column view. When you select any item in any column, another column comes up on the right until an icon - with no content - is displayed in the far right column.

Simulating one column using two columns in a JTable

What I need to do is "join" the two first columns of a JTable...
What do I mean by saying "join" ?
I want to make dissapear the right border of the first column, and the same thing for the left border of the second column, also do both things for the column headers of that two columns.
All that to simulate having one column when there's actually two differents columns.
How can i do that ? Thanks !

Make a TableModel that filters your original table model.
See JTable.setModel.
public class MergedColumnsTableModel extends javax.swing.table.AbstractTableModel
     javax.swing.TableModel model;
     int[] columnSpans;
      * Assume for simplicity that model does not change (no columns inserted/deleted).
     public MergedColumnsTableModel(javax.swing.TableModel model) {
          this.model = model;
          columnSpans = new int[model.getColumnCount()];
          for (int columnIndex = 0; columnIndex < columnSpans.length; ++columnIndex) {
               columnSpans[columnIndex] = 1;
     public void merge2(int columnIndex) {
          int leftSpan = columnSpans[columnIndex];
          int rightSpan = columnSpans[columnIndex + leftSpan];
          columnSpans[columnIndex + leftSpan] = 0;
          columnSpans[columnIndex] += rightSpan;
     public int getRowCount() {
          return model.getRowCount();
     public int getColumnCount() {
          int n = 0;
          for (int i = 0; i < columnSpans.length; ++i) {
               if (columnSpans[i] != 0) {
                    ++n;
          return n;
     public Object getValueAt(int row, int column) {
          int n = 0;
          for (int i = 0; i < columnSpans.length; ++i) {
               if (columnSpans[i] != 0) {
                    if (n == column) { // We are at the column
                         return model.getValueAt(row, i);
                    ++n;
}

Formula to combine multiple fields on one column

Hi All,
How do you create a formula in the formula editor that allows you combine several fields onto one column. An example: if I wanted to combine a street address onto one column when it is several fields in the data base. I know I need to seriously work on my coding, because it probbably is not that difficult. I've tried slect statementw with Case True and different If then else statements, but I am not getting all of value to return.
Regards-

Hi Kyle,
To avoid null values you need to convert "Default values for nulls" in the formula editor.
Edit your formula
{database.field1} + " " + {database.field2} + " " + {database.field3}
and in formula editor at the top you can see a dropdown list with "Exception for nulls" change this and select "Default values for nulls"
Now you can avoid the nulss in output

Raghavendra

Select distinct('more than one column') from ....

Why does this sql statement not work:
select distinct(column_a, column_b, column_c), empno
from emp;
How can I 'select distinct' using more than one column.

Actually, DISTINCT applies to all columns in the result.
Distinct is not a function, you cannot do distinct(column1, column2, ...).
As a matter of fact it doesn't make sense to expect distinct applies to only one column, because you do not specify any criteria on how to select the values for the second column.
A final note: you can do distinct(column1), column2, but this will still apply to both columns!
Here're some examples that will all return both rows from the set, where set is: (1,1), (1,2):
select distinct val1, val2
from
select 1 as val1, 1 as val2 from dual
union all
select 1 as val1, 2 as val2 from dual
select distinct val1||'-'||val2
from
select 1 as val1, 1 as val2 from dual
union all
select 1 as val1, 2 as val2 from dual
select distinct(val1), val2 -- this is very misleading. distinct still applies to both columns
from
select 1 as val1, 1 as val2 from dual
union all
select 1 as val1, 2 as val2 from dual

How to hide a column in report when it has all zeros.

Hi Experts.,
Is there any possibility to hide a column in report when it has all zeros.
Thanks in Advance
Venkat

VenkatNot out-of-the-box, but there are several workarounds if you wish to pursue any of them:
1) Use a View Selector. One report will have a pivot table with the column, the other will have the same report minus the column. Users can switch reports.
2) Use a Column Selector. The two choices would be that column or a blank. If the blank is chosen (because the user sees there are no values), the column will "disappear" from the report.
3) Use Guided Nav. This method doesn't involve user intervention. Build a small report using the one column and put a filter on it "is not equal to" 0. Because there is only one column, if all the rows are 0, the report will not return rows.
Use this report in the guided navigation properties of a section of the dashboard. Set this to "if the report returns rows" and put the report that has the column in this section. Now add another section to your dashboard and in the guided navigation properties of this section, set it to "if the report returns no rows" and point it to the small report as well. In this section put a second version of your report without the column in it.
When the column contains all zeroes, the second section will display with the column not in it; the first section will not display. When at least one row contains a non-zero value, the first section will appear with the column, and the second section will not.
