As necessary, you can edit the metadata information of a column directly from the
Grid view of a table or worksheet.
To change the metadata information of a column:
-
In the Grid view of an open table or worksheet, place the pointer in the
heading of the column for which you want to change the metadata
information.
The Trillion-Row Spreadsheet (or Macro Language Workshop) displays a
drop-down arrow. If you hover your mouse on the arrow, a tooltip displays
information about the column.
-
Click the drop-down arrow () and then click Modify
info.
The Insights Platform displays the
Column
metadata dialog for the appropriate column.
-
Edit the appropriate column metadata information.
-
Click Submit.
The Trillion-Row Spreadsheet applies the changes to the column metadata
information and adds a
Modify panel to the
timeline.
You can edit the
Modify panel if desired.
Note: If you modify the column metadata in the results pane of the Macro
Language Workshop, the MLW displays the changes to the column metadata
as a
<cols>
operation added to the end of your
code.
