Title: Reports in .csv format not opening in IE 9 & Windows 7
Post by: Anke on 25 Jul 2012 08:26:54 AM
Hi 'all!! 
We updated to Windows 7 & IE 9 a week or so ago...we are on Cognos 8.4.1

Reports that used to open in IE 8 & Win XP that are .csv no longer open... I do not have any toolbars/ and popups are off...Excel 2007 format, HTML, and PDF open fine.  When I run a .csv nothing happens....when I run on my other PC, I briefly see the window (like how the Excel would flash with popup block on or popup on toolbar on)...

Suggestions?
Thanks!!
Anke

This is related to IE 9 and  not Cognos. Tweak your security settings in IE...Internet options/Security. You might want to add your Cognos website as a trusted site.

Cognos is a trusted site (has been since IE7)....and it still doesn't work.

I know this is an IE9 issue....just not sure how others are getting the CSV's to open in notepad with IE9 :(
