Title: Cognos for MS Office 11.1.1 over a 10.2.2
Post by: Sunchaser on 09 Jul 2019 04:38:35 AM
Hi all,
Let's say I have one computer on which Cognos for MS Office 11.1.1 is installed. If I have to point to a Cognos URL, but it is a Cognos 10.2 installation, will it work?
Thanks!
Vinc

I'm pretty sure the answer is yes - it will work. Just use the correct URL to connect to your Cognos 10.2 instance. The only thing that seems to have changed in Cognos for MS Office between the 10 and 11 installs is that the ribbon UI was updated.

Cheers!

MF.

Hi,

Thanks for the answer!  :)
So, I will give it a try, and see if everything works as expected.
