Http link to project (with filters)

[IanG]

Does anyone know of a nice way to dynamically build a http link to a report from within a Cognos Report.

What the users want is to be able to view a report, filter it, and then save a URL that when followed would run that report with the same filters set.  This URL can then be added to their browsers favorites and run every week, or emailed to a colleague.

I know that I can build a link and pass the parameters to it, but it would be quite a mess to do (and not sure how it would handle multivalue params).  I was kinda hoping, I guess, that someone already had a nice smart way of doing it...

Thanks in advance,

Ian G
