Handeling Parent-Child hierarchy in RS2005

hello,

I have a problem in RS2005:

In my report I see all levels in one column. However they are shown in a way that I think that if I only could get it to toggle correctly it will work out fine...

I would like my P/C dimensionto display just as it does when I use AS. Expanding top level (by pressing +), viewing next level down where I can "open" (by pressing +) next level and so on. Does anyone know how this is done or suggestions on how to solve it?

This is the kind of display I would like:

-A 100

-B 50
D 25
E 25

+C 50

Sincerely,

Hello Hanna

After you select the fields in the query builder, you are prompted to select a matrix or a tabular approach. Then, when you select matrix, you are prompted to select the fields that go to the columns, the fields that go to the rows, and so on.

All you have to do is to check the little checkbox in the lower left corner that says "Enable Drilldown". This will put all your top level member of the hierarchy in the first column and will enable you to drill down.

Did it work?

Hello again...

Can you tell me what you did to be able to see all levels in one column?

I have an hierarchy:

region -> area -> district -> country

Example:

Europe (region)
Southern Europe (Area)
Southern West Europe (district)
Portugal (country)

my objective is to have the following display:

Hierarchy Value
-
Europe 1000
Southern Europe 500
Southern West Europe 250
Portugal 150
Spain 100

How can I achieve this?

I don't want the hierarchy to be displayed in more than one column like this:

Region Area District Country Value
Europe S. Europe S. West Europe Portugal 150
Europe S. Europe S. West Europe Spain 100

And I don't want the hierarchy to be displayed with drilldown like this:

Hierarchy Value
- Europe 1000
- Southern Europe 500
-Southern West Europe 250
Portugal 150
Spain 100

I just want the hierarchy to be displayed in a single column.
