Data provider cannot be edited because it is based on a Free Hand SQL script

0 Kudos

I am getting this message "This data provider cannot be edited because it is based on a Free Hand SQL script." whenever I try to change the SQL script on a report I have already produced using Free Hand SQL (in Webi). Our IT Department assures me that my rights have not changed. Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening.

Hi, Jean. This problem has been answered in the following thread: https://archive.sap.com/documents/docs/DOC-59985

It states that:

The FHSQL query panel is only available on WEBI Java Applet, not in the WEBI DHTML client. So, check that you enabled the WEBI Java Applet in your WEBI preferences.

Once you have done this, if you get the following message - Web Intelligence Applet cannot be loaded, please make sure you have installed a Java virtual machine - then you will need to get the Java Virtual Machine installed first. You can change your option back to HTML in the interim.

Hope this helps.
