33 – Drill Mode in Web Intelligence
Drill Mode enables you to explore data by moving up, down and across the dataset(s) held within the Web Intelligence document. Web Intelligence uses the dynamic behaviour of measures to ‘roll up’ or ‘break down’ rows of data depending on dimension hierarchies. In this...
32 – Using Local Data Sources
It is possible to use Text and Excel files (*.txt, *.csv, *.prn, *.asc, *.xls, *.xlsx) as sources of data when creating queries using Web Intelligence Rich Client, and you can also use Excel files as data sources in Web Intelligence. In this session we show you how to...
