Peter,
This doesn't work when using a loop in a report book. I want to loop through 10 different entities for the same report using a member filter loop type in the loop definitions of the report book. To get the loop to function, you have to define your loop1variable in your change parameters. How do you tell OS to display a description here instead of the entity name? |CVEntityDesc| doesn't work when put into the Cubeview for a report book that uses a loop.

How about you try using Loop1DisplayVariable?

Hi,
Mine is working too. Look at the print screens below. That report is in fact a Guided Reporting report, using the |!Entity_GRT!| as entity parameter. The |CVEntityDesc| is only showing the description of the entities coming from the |!Entity_GRT!|.
Then you have the loop and the change parameter. In the change parameter you set the parameter from the report equals the |Loop1Variable|
