Hi,

These both actions have the same output, when the user performs the action of cut/paste or Move, the report is moved from the current location and placed to the new location. in this case a new pointer is created on the content store for the report, i.e the report has a new location. The user needs to be aware if the the report being cut/paste or moved is being used as a target report in any report drill through as once its moved from the location the drill throuigh reference will fail.

Regards.

If you cut and paste you can end up with broken links...moving tends to keep the links intact.
