Text areas containing dynamic values

To create automatic advice based on data, the text areas should be able to have linked values (out of in the database) inserted. Currently this is possible in pivot tables. Example: a high value would end up the text : 'Well done" while a low value would result in "Improve".

    Hello Egbert, I do think this is already possible, unless I misunderstand your idea. For example use a Calculated Value in a text area with the Value set to a custom expression like: If(Sum([Sales])>40,"Well done!","You need to work harder!"). I attached a screenshot to show what I mean. Does it help?
