Make drill through reports accessible via downloaded MHT files

Hi!

I have an active report that is meant to be downloaded or sent via email as mht files daily. However the report contains a drill through definition that links another report upon clicking an image. Once I downloaded the report as an mht file, I realised that I am no longer able to access the drill through report. How do I resolve the matter such that I am able to access the drill through report?

I don't think you can - the mht file is effectively a stand alone file. If the user runs the active report from your cognos connection it should work though.

The alternative is to replace the drill-through definition with the URL of the target report on the Cognos server. If the user isn't already authenticated, they will need to go through the authentication process after clicking the link, though.

Meep!
