  • 1.  Data Module Unset Query Property

    Posted 09/08/20 08:26 PM
    Hi @HENK CAZEMIER,

    Initially for any query item, properties are unset. Once I select any and later want to unset it, I don't see any option to do it.​

    Since Data Module is large, it's not possible to open with ctrl /q and remove those properties.

    If I set to Automatic, will it work same way as unselected or do need to do anything else?

    Appreciate your inputs!

    All objects have properties and those properties have default values. Those default values are displayed.   Many of the default values are labelled automatic. 

    When a property value is altered, that action modifies the module and the new property values are displayed.

    When you set the property back to its default value it should restore the behaviour to match that property value's function.

    Thanks @IAN HENDERSON for response!

    This is not completely true from what I see and caused issue at my end when trying to revert changes.


    Defaultsettings
    Once I change Usage property to Bridge, it gave error to one of report. I tried to unset it again and this is what I see (with no unset option):


    Final

    Please advise how can I bring it to previous state.

    Thanks!

    "  Many of the default values are labelled automatic. "

    Set the usage to automatic and you will be back to square one.
