Title: [Closed] Drilling down from a chart
Post by: maverick_hs on 20 Oct 2005 01:29:08 PM
I just can't figure out how to specify the target report for drilling down from a chart. The ellipsis in the drill through dialog box, used to select the target report os greyed out for a chart... Is it possible at all to have drill through reports for a chart?

I ran into this problem in 11/2004 - the Cognos response was "Its not possible."  Enhancement request - 428903.  I haven't heard anything about it since.  I ended up having to create a crosstab below the chart to provide links.

I got the same repsonse from Cognos support today. they sais it would be available in cognos 8. Fortunately, for me it was a nice to have feature rather than essential, so I can live without it.
