• Visual Basic Treenode label editing

  I have a treeview in my app that the user has the ability to edit the treenode label by use of a context menu. What I want the ability to do, is have the user click (left button) twice - I call it a slow doubleclick, to fire the event to edit the label.

  I've created an "Account" dimension using parent child relationships and added a unary operator to the dimension e.g. "+" and "-" to aggregate things like gross margin = sales - cost of sales. The dimension hierarchy shows correct operators and levels (it is a ragged dimension) in the dimension browser, however when I go to the cube browser and place the hirearchy in the rows some of the members which have children cannot be "expanded" to see the children while others can. Some members when expanded show children which do not belong to them (i.e. different than what is shown in the dimension browse ...Show All
