Hiding a Sort Field

How to:

In OLAP, you can hide a sort field by clicking the Hide check box in a report. In past releases, the text (hidden) was displayed to the right of the field name in the Drill Down pane in the OLAP Control Panel. Beginning with Version 7 Release 7.02, hidden sort fields are indicated by reversing the color of the icon that appears at the left of the field name.
