Change a Feature Variable Name in Dataview Report.

I have a data-view report saved in a specific format. I need to change some specific features to reflect the upgrade in my program. How do you change the variable name to pull in that specific data? I opened the report, highlighted the grid, opened the edit form and right clicked the feature name cell pulling up the grid box. When I click the select button for the expression, I get the path, but no way to change the feature. I tried to click the enable edit cell box, but nothing happens. I really do not want to remake this entire report for 6 - 8 features that need to be changed. As always, any help would be appreciated.

  • I made a report in the tab "cad report". It's saved for mang. to review different runs of this part using the same format so there is no searching, just the same look, different info. Now I changed the way I measure the feature, it's a weld nut. I was just measuring the inside for location hitting the threads. I now have a thread center to measure the weld nut locations, minor difference between the two, but I digress. Now I would like to change the feature currently giving info to the new feature id and it's info. I just cannot seem to find that area to change it. I see the options on the right, but I cannot access it. I might have to call tech support.
