Problem Note 2590: Column names used for column label text with new DATAFORM entry
With a Form Viewer or Table Viewer control within a SAS/AF FRAME entry,
if you specify the name of a new DATAFORM entry in the Properties window
for the form viewer or table viewer and then run your application,
column names will be used instead of column labels for column label
text. Changing the setting to "label" in the Columns Properties window
has no effect.
To circumvent the problem, specify to use the labels programmatically
such as:
dcl list collist=makelist();
sasdataset1._getDisplayedColumns(collist);
numcols=listlen(collist);
do i=1 to numcols;
sasdataset1.columns{i}.labeltext='columnLabel';
end;
if collist then collist=dellist(collist);
