Wrong Subset Behavior on Excel 2003

Hello,

I noticed that if i use the function SUBNM on Excel 2003 (after an export or asking TM1 for a Active Form) the subset sends me a
"TODO" Subset that i didnt made (which in spanish means ALL) and no data is displayed, even if i press any button like "display all". On the TM1Web is working well.

I am using 9.4 MR1 FP2, excel 2003, win XP

I am attaching an Image. I couldnt find something on the forum.

Thanks

Rodrigo

Try creating a new subset (with all of the elements you want) and referring that in your Excel formula and see if that works.

It worked! thanks..

=SUBNM("sdata:year","Por defecto","2008")

But this makes me wonder that using only "" for subsets doesnt work in excel slicing on ESP language by now.

I generally stay away from using "" in subsets simply because its not reliable especially if you keep changing whats in different unnamed subsets

I think the problem is, that the TM1-Server is set up on English, whilst you client is Spanish. So your client assumes, that there is the system-generated, always available TODO subset - but the server has only the generic ALL subset. They just don't meet where expected ...
