Hi Anant,
There are 2 requirements.
��� a) you should name the computed column (u seem to have done that.)
��� b) there should be a value in that. i.e if the retrieve returns no
rows and resulting in NO computed column, then u will get those
reference errors.
Then the dot notation of the foll. format will work.
�ld_prepaid_freightbought =
dw_report.Object.dw_details.Object.cc_prepaid_freightbought [1]
Remember to put the [1] and ensure there is at least one row which will
ensure the instantiation of the computed column.
The above line plucks the value from a nested report inside a datawindow
report. Depending on your case you may have one level lesser (or more
:-))
HTH. Pls email me if this doesn't work and let's try to figure it out
together.
