Export Data Dialog Box Questions
I have a couple of questions regarding the Export Data functionality in the
BIRT Viewer.
First, I have noticed when I include a table on a report (named MyTable for
example), when I view the "Available Result Sets" in Export Data I sometimes
see multiple result sets listed for MyTable named MyTable, MyTable_1,
MyTable_2, etc. I am assuming that this is due to the fact that I sometimes
have multiple detail rows with different formatting/contents as well as
different formatting/contents for header and footer rows. Is there a way to
suppress the display of MyTable_1, MyTable_2, etc.in the "Available Result
Sets" list?
Second, if I create aggregations and place them into table header/footer
cells, they are listed in the Data Bindings for MyTable. As a result, when
the MyTable result set is selected for export, the aggregations are listed
in the "Available Columns" list. I know that I can remove the aggregations
from the MyTable data bindings list, but it is my understanding that I
wouldn't be able to display them in the table on the report. Is there any
other way to indicate that I want to exclude the aggregations from the
"Available Columns" list?
