Title: Showing Report Path in report viewer
Post by: joe22 on 24 May 2010 07:25:38 AM
Hi,
I have to show the report path in the report viewer (same as when we navigate through various folders on Cognos Connection) and also provide hyper links similar to Cognos Connection so that the user can navigate to any folder in cognos connection. We have hidden the return button/icon.
e.g.Public Folders> Reports > Report Name

add a Hyperlink item in the report, rename it to Public Folders, and change the url to the URL value in the properties of Public Folders.... and so on...

and add a text '>' in between Public Folders and the next folder you want linked to...

Not the best of options... other experts can chime in

Hey Tupac,
I agree with you that this is not the most sophisticated technique to do it, but it works. I'll show it around and see if it is acceptable.

Thanks for your help.

Joe
