Problem Note 14971: Data item name in the Prompt management dialog window is incorrectly
changed after exiting the data item properties dialog window
With Information Map Studio, the data item name in the Prompt management
dialog window is incorrectly changed after exiting from the data item
properties dialog window.
To recreate the problem, create an information map based on the
SASHELP.CLASS table. Select Tools, then Manage Prompts from the
pulldown menu. Select the "Prompt Value Generation" tab. From here,
set the Prompt Type to "Use value generation method for data item" and
make sure that the data item name is "Age". Select OK and then Close.
Back in the information map view, double-click on the data item of
"Name" to bring up the "Data Item Properties" dialog window. Select the
"Permissions/Value" tab and then select the radio button for
"Dynamically generate a list of all values when querying the data
source". Click OK to exit.
At this point, the data item name of "Age" defined previously via the
Manage Prompts dialog has been changed to "Name". You can determine
this by selecting Tools and then Manage Prompts. Click "Edit" on the
first prompt to see that the data item name has been changed.
