Question

Hi
I'd asked this qn a few days back about selecting only required text elements out of the whole list, for display on web reports. I followed the link Bhanu had sent and tried to select text elements. But I'm not able to get the text elements on the report.
I dragged and dropped Text elements, and clicked on the Web Items tab. I selected the "List of Text elements" box. I got a screen that says Element type and Element ID.
I typed in the text elements I want (Last refreshed and Status of Data). Not sure what the Element Type should be. But when I run the report, I see the Text elements heading, but nothing under it.
Any idea on how to select two of out the many text elements? The other selection I have checked is "Display general text elements".
Also, is there a way to change the description of the text element? For example, the users want Status of data to say "Load date" and Last refreshed to say "Run date".
Lastly, I’m trying to show three different queries in the same URL (one below the other).
I’m dragging in three Tables and selecting different queries for each. But when I run the report, it shows me three report outputs on the same page, of only the first query (3 identical reports). How do I get it to show three different outputs on the same page?
Help would greatly be appreciated!
Thanks !
Pooja.

Hi Pooja,
         Did you create a new data provider for each of these table web items? You dragged three tables to your web template and assigned queries for each of them, right?
The problem is that you didn't create seperate data providers for each of these tables. So same query was assigned to all the three tables.
<b>Solution</b>
Drag the first table web item to your template.
Assign the Query 1 to the table.
Drag the second table to your web template. You can see that Query 1 is assigned to the data provider by default. So you've to create a new data provider to assign a new query. Otherwise your first settings will be replaced by this.
In the Properties -> General tab -> Name (Above the Query/Query View), Click on the Create New Data Provider button(Data Provider 2 by default. You can change the name if you want).
Assign the second query to this data provider.
Drag the table web item again. Create a new data provider (Data Provider 3).
Assign the third query to this data Provider.
Save and execute the web template.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Hari
