Re: Using VBA Replace to alter DBRW references in PAfE

Try using Application.EnableEvents = False before modifying the cell formula. Then .Dirty method on the range. Then trigger calculation. Thanks William. I was able to get it to work by doing this. Specifically, with the add-in loaded I was able to disable events once at the beginning of the routine...

I should also say that Sendkeys("F2") appears to work, again with the add-in active. However I have experienced crashes, though not as severe as using .dirty

Re: Using VBA Replace to alter DBRW references in PAfE

In your VBA code, could you not set the cells you are updating to Dirty using the .Dirty method? This should force a recalculation of the cells next time the sheet is calculated. George, that worked (Sort of). What I have found is that PAfE has to be loaded but no connection /login is necessary for...

Re: How to avoid queuing at the end of processes parallelization ?

There is a setting where locking is reported in TM1Server.log. This is a good place to start to gain insight. I used RunProcess in the same manner in my prior role and had a lot of problems with locking. When these specific locks were encountered the parallel processes would go into serial mode. And...

I've already answered my question.

Issue with ODBC connections, rows past line 65536 nulled/zeroed

I have raised this with IBM Support but thought I would ask if anyone has seen this. We have an ODBC query against a PostgreSQL materialised view which returns 72,000 rows. Using ODBC in Excel all rows come through fine. In a TI any rows past 65536(2^16) have string values set to null and numeric va...

Re: Universal reports

So DBRW will not work with TM1Set if the TM1Set references another hierarchy? Maren No, different functions are required for cell read and cell send etc. IBM showed DQR and some of the new worksheet functions almost 3 years ago when the release of DQR was then imminent. I think Cubewise have built ...

Of course we all want the new hierarchy data functions but I don't see anything in the roadmap for that.
