Showing interbase Views in ReportExplorer

edited July 2007 in End User
Hello,

I wrote a Report-Designer tool witch Transfers my FireBird Table
Structures to the the Table and Fields Tables of the ppDataDictionary.
This works pretty good and all Tabels can be used at the Report Builder.

I also transfere the structures of some Views to this tables but these
structures will not be shown at the Report Builder.

Of cause the user can make a "SELECT * FROM MyView" but it would be much
nicer if the user can access the prepared Data on a Visual way.

So is it possible to map the Views like Table in the Report Builder?


kind regards
Bjoern

    Hi Bjoern,

    Which version of ReportBuilder are you using? For the latest version of
    ReportBuilder (10.06), Views have been included in the GetTableNames routine
    which is where the datadictionary gets its table entries.
