Edit Text in Management Reporter Column Calculation

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Can someone tell me how to format text in a column calculation? 

For instance the NM is the text. I tried both the " and ' but they gave me an invalid character error. Is there a way to do this?

IF (B/C)>1 THEN "NM"

Thank you,

Angie

    Angie,

    In FRx, this used to work. The way it was executed involved creating a row with the text you wanted to display and referencing the row with the text in the column calculation.

    If B/C > 1 THEN B.101 (row 101 was where our description text was located)

    I tried this, this morning with B.101 and B.@101, and a number of other variations, with no luck. Perhaps this is a feature that didn't make it into Management Reporter, or is executed in some other fashion.

    I referred to the manual, and poked around the Internet. The closest I came to answer was a March 2009 post on the FRx implementation of this feature.

    This may not be possible.

    Hi,

    Have you tried XCR code on the column in MR.
