Question:
How can I change the type of text being displayed in an E3Browser or Report (for example, to have it display True or False instead of 0 or 1)?
Solution:
In this case, an alternative is to edit the SQL query, forcing it to return the desired values according to the values used as condition.
Examples:
In an SQL Server database, use SELECT CASE or IIF:
SELECT E3TimeStamp, CASE WHEN Field1 = 0 THEN ‘False’ ELSE True END as ColumnName
FROM Table1
ORDER BY E3TimeStamp ASC
FROM Table1
ORDER BY E3TimeStamp ASC
SELECT E3TimeStamp, IIF(Field1 = 0, ‘False’, ‘True’) as ColumnName
FROM Table1
ORDER BY E3TimeStamp ASC
FROM Table1
ORDER BY E3TimeStamp ASC
In an Access database, use IIF command:
SELECT IIF(Field1 = 0,’True’,’False’) as ColumnName, E3TimeStamp
FROM Table1
ORDER BY E3TimeStamp ASC
FROM Table1
ORDER BY E3TimeStamp ASC
In an Oracle database, use SELECT CASE:
SELECT
CASE
When Severity = ‘0’ Then ‘False’
When Severity = ‘1’ Then ‘True’
END
FROM Table1
