DRIVEN DIMENSION VS DRIVING DIMENSION

DRIVEN DIMENSION VS DRIVING DIMENSION

(OP)
DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO CHANGE THE STATE OF A DIMENSION FROM A TABLE? i NEED A DRIVING DIM TO BE PLACED INTO A DRIVEN STATE.

RE: DRIVEN DIMENSION VS DRIVING DIMENSION

Right click on the dimension in the model (not in the table) and set it to driven.  You may have to go into properties and then set it to driven.  To my knowledge, there is no way to set it to driven from the table.  Also, once it is driven, you can change it in the table, but it will not update in the model... because it is driven.

RE: DRIVEN DIMENSION VS DRIVING DIMENSION

Perhaps it's located by the CAPS LOCK key, and that's why you didn't find it?
