What would you like to see?

Hi everyone
Is there anything about Discoverer that has been bugging you, something where a posting might help? Perhaps you have a desire to know how to do something, or perhaps you would like to see a visual aid for working through a workflow?

Drop me a line to michael@learndiscoverer.com and I will see what I can do.

Unknown said...: Hey Mike,

Hope things are going well for you and interesting you should post this question :-) I am currently getting a little tired of changing the property "item class" on elements in folders so they can become a LOV. Lets assume Type of Animal is a LOV. If in a business area you have 10 folders that have the item "Type of Animal" do you really have to visit each one and make it a LOV so a report has a pull down parameter OR is there a way to make a generic LOV such that the element in the folder is not a LOV but the parameter for the element is? So basically, could you start a thread on Best Practices for useing and making LOV's. Appreciate your expertise and thanks for keeping up this blog.; 11:02 AM
