Title: Modifying a Table in CWA
Post by: bozobozo on 03 Dec 2015 06:01:57 AM
Hello...I've inserted a 2x2 table into CWA and I want to add more rows or columns to the table.  For the life of me, I can't find out how to do this.  In RS, you have Table up on the toolbar to do this.  Thank you.

This is an excellent point! There doesn't seem to be a way to extend a table in the standard UI. If you are using Cognos 10.2.2 you could set up a user interface profile for CWA that includes the Table menubar option, but this isn't available in earlier versions.

Thanks for confirming what I sadly see....unless someone can figure something else out.  Even though we are on 10.2.2 and I could explore the user profile angle, that option isn't something that the admins have really offered us yet...not sure why they are dragging their feet/not interested.  BUT, it could be because they are planning on offering us the new Cognos Analytics mid next year which from what I see combines CWA+RS into a single interface...so then we will have all the power of RS but in a more organized fashion.  And then, my pb gets resolved!
