Hi Guys,

In that project i need to generate a Horizontal menu barÃ,  contains 10 different departments on the top of the report
This menu bar must appearÃ,  on each and every reportÃ, 
By this menu bar i am going to do drill down of each individaul report (Links:It will leads to each individual detailed report)

My question isÃ, 
Is there any way to create a customized menu barÃ,  for all reports
orÃ,  I need to generateÃ,  menubarÃ,  in each and every report

If i need to generate for each report  its going to me a huge task for me
i need to change nearly 200 reports.


In the menu bar i need to use these buttons

Try a repeater with a drillthrough set to the reports necessary or to bookmarks. But why don't you burst your report to the departments? So they will see only their own information.

We are usingÃ,  powerplay cube as a data source
In that cube we dont have a provision to use bursting
This we are implementing inÃ,  cognos 8 BI(Evaluation version)
