Moving a dimension column

When you move a dimension column in a summary table, you can move it only among other dimension columns. Dimension columns and associated attribute columns always appear preceding the measure columns in a summary table.

Dimension columns can also contain associated data fields, called attributes. You cannot move a dimension column independently of its associated attribute columns.

Deleting a dimension column

To delete a dimension column, select the column, and choose Delete. When you delete a dimension column containing associated attributes from a summary table, the attribute fields are not deleted.
