Title: Drill Throughs on a Table View?

Hello,
I have a quick question regarding drill throughs...can you drill through data items using only table view as data source? I know I can setup report drill throughs, but what I am essentially looking for is to be able to click on a individual and see the days worked in Feb 09 for example..is this only done with cubes?

thanks,

Drill-through (multidimensional analysis) refers to dimensional data (Cube / DMR), but you can sometimes accomplish the same with a drill-through to a secondary report.
I think this last option is a powerful Cognos feature..

HI...
Thanks..I agree it's powerful..except the option to drill up/down is actually greyed out when I run the report..The behaviour has all been set to Allow..so I guess I figured that the option to drill up/down wasn't available.
