Shortcut to Query Studio Report View

Thanks for any help you can offer.

I have a user that has created a shortcut to a report view of a Cognos Query Studio Report.  He wants to be able to change the Query Studio Report and have the report view and shortcut reflect the change, without having to create a new shortcut each time.  Currently, if you run the report view using the run options the changes appear.  If you run the shortcut using the run options the changes appear.  If you run the shortcut by clicking on the name the changes do not appear.  Is there a way to see the changes without having to save the report view and thus create a new shortucut?

The only way I can imagine the changes not being reflected when clicking on the name of the shortcut is if there is a saved report output version which is being retrieved and rendered.  Otherwise the shortcut (and report view) should automatically show the changes made to the report.  You could either remove the saved output, or regenerate it, or change the default action for clicking on the name to run the report rather than showing the saved output.
