Retrieving a table parameter but not knowing the Primary or Display Keys

Hi Dojo,

In a Visio, I want to display a certain parameter from a table (example 2006), but to select the row, I need to know the Primary Key.  However I don’t know the Primary Key (2001), I only know another parameter in the table (2003), but this parameter isn’t a Display Key.

Does anyone have a suggestion as to how I can either resolve the Primary Key from my starting parameter, or directly lookup different table parameters, without knowing the Primary Key (the table doesn’t have a Display Key)

Thanks

The subsection on how to use a SubscriptionFilter to retrieve a table parameter should help you out.

Thanks for the suggestion Toon, I used a ParameterSubscriptionFilter to get my desired output.

I do have a new challenge in working out how to make the displayed parameter refresh when the parameter on the Element changes.

Not sure what you mean by that. Is the value not updating? Feel free to create a new question to handle that specifically.
