nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

The List must be able to access one data set.

I get this message in the problems tab.
" The List must be able to access one data set."

The report still seems to run fine with this error.
I can get rid of the error message by binding the list to a dummy DS (e.g. SELECT 'DUMMY" AS DUMMY_FIELD), and the report still runs fine; however, if I bind the list to any other data set, I get duplicate rows.

Should I worry about this error? Has anyone else seen this? What do you do about it?

Hi sbenko,

I have not seen this error before. Can you recreate the error with the sample database so I can see it?

sbenko

Thank you Michael, sample attached

What version of BIRT are you using? Sorry. Should have asked that before.

sbenko

This is BIRT 2.3.0

sbenko,

I don't see an error running it in 2.3.0. Just the label in the header.

sbenko

It must be something unique to my environment. I get invalid file when I try to upload the screen shot, will try again.

sbenko,

Why are you not binding the list to a dataSet? Are you using data items from multiple dataSets in the list?

sbenko

In this case, the list is being used for a report heading and a table for the data.

mwilliams

sbenko,

What is the purpose of using the list and not just a text box or label in the table header for a report heading?

sbenko

No special reason. This is the way I was taught in the BIRT training hosted by our FMax vendor, Asset Works. Before that I had never used BIRT. It is not a big deal. The report runs O.K. with the error, so not to worry. I just thought that someone else has seen this. Thanks

sbenko,

If you attach your report design, I might be able to offer a suggestion on another way to set it up as to not receive that error.

sbenko

I think that you have already solved this problem. I just need to forget about the list, and put the report heading in the table header.

Thanks again...

Great! Let us know if you have any other questions.
