Linked Calculated Fields

Post by DalePearmain » Tue Nov 11, 2003 9:11 am

I have a report in which one calculated field is used in about forty or fifty other calculated fields. I need to amend the original but firstly want to make sure that the other fields will still work properly after the change. Rather than looking through thousands of fields is there any way that I can get a list of the fields the original is used in so to check the alteration will not adversely affect the report?____Also, on a different point, why cannot pre-processed total fields be used in the condition of other totals?

If you are using the Report Librarian then you can run a report against the librarian files to do just this.____Alternatively you can print the report specifications which includes the expressions for all calculated fields.______Kathleen__R&R Support
