    Hi,


    There is a DAX path() function available in excel 2013 ,as mentioned in the below link:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en…s-in-dax-HA102839072.aspx
    If you refer the PATH column , i need my output like this.


    I installed Office 2013 trial version and strangely found that I cannot use this function.And there is no useful link of detailed explanation of using this function.
    If there is any link where-in in VBA it is available as my expected output is ,please guide me. thanks ..

    Re: PLEASE HELP ME OUT Parent-Child hierarchy construction


    It clearly states that it is for Excel 2013 with PowerPivot, which is a separate Excel addin.


    I would also think that you need the full version of Excel

    Hi,

    I have installed Office 2013..I am not aware of using Powerpivot, learning and trying now takes more time. Would help if you help me out on this.

    Appreciate your thoughts on not helping. It was a urgent requirement and hence was requesting that did anybody tried in their projects..

    Re: PLEASE HELP ME OUT Parent-Child hierarchy construction


    Not too sure exactly what you mean in your reply, but the fact it was an urgent requirement on your part does not excuse you ignoring one of the cardinal rules when posting on boards such as this... If you post the same issue on multiple boards, then at least have the courtesy to let people know .


    Have a happy and peaceful Christmas (if that' happens to be your thing).

    Please follow the rules, both implicit and explicit rules:


    - no cross-posting. Urgency is not an excuse for cross-posting. At the very least, tell helpers about it.
    - no useless words or phrases in the topic title. For example, PLEASE HELP ME is absolutely useless information.
    - You posted twice the same reply in this topic. You could have deleted one of the 2.
    - If you absolutely don't know what you are talking about, please take the time to build up knowledge before doing thses non-trivial exercises. If you're new to VB and VBA, do the simple stuff first and do not expect an answer if you do not spend any effort yourself.


    Let me be clear, if you do not pay attention to what I wrote here, your stay at Ozgrid will not last very long.
    However, if you do follow this, we are glad to have you on board.
