Determine position number of Attribute within Entity

dirkco

I need to determine the position number of an Attribute within an Entity. Likewise for a column within a table.

The model save the attributes/columns in the correct order but don't keep a position number field per se.

When reporting we want to list the attributes in the order they appear in the table/entity.

Hi dirko,

It's been forever since you posted but for others trying to do this, BIRT has a feature where you can create a new Computed Column on your Data Set that has a running total method which can be used to provide a count number based on the order received in the query... See screenshot.
