Conditional hierarchy level name

    in 2005, is it possible to have the name of a level in a hierachy change based on a condition?

    For example, in our corporation (which is Level 1), when level 2 is Company A, then level 3 is Division, but when Level 2 is Company B, then Level 3 displayed as is Region.

    thanks

    Dean,

    I could do with some more information to understand what you are trying to show and also the shape of you organisational hierarchy.

    1. Is your organisation like below

    Level 1 corporation

    Level 2 company

    Level 3Division (optional)

    Level 4Region

    An example of this may be a company where they have

    Level 1 country

    Level 2 County (optional)

    Level 3 Town

    Level 4 Retail Outlet

    They have this structure because the bottom level of their organistaion is the retail outlet. They have county as optional because they want to treat KLondon both as a town and as a county. Their sales for London as a Town would be better compared to a county rather than some other towns.

    2. Whats the difference between a region and a division? Is there some relationshipt there?

    3. Why do the users want to see them differently?

    Thanks.

    Mark.
