Hello all,
I need to create a simple portal tab, which would consist of information of data loads. How can I create a portal tab with text? What is the easiest way?
Is it possible to create a tab with embedded xls file? Xls would just be on server where I could update it. I just need to write messages to users, e.g. "2008-01-09 Data load successful".
Thanks in advance!
The easiest way would be a report.
Example 1: at the end of your data load, write a record in a small table containing a timestamp. Query that table in your report and display the last data load timestamp.
Example 2: if you don't want to create/write a small table, and if you use SQL Server with DTS, then query the msdb database to retrieve the last successful run of your DTS script.
Hope my "early-morning-inspiration-mood" helps you further ;)
