Hi,


there's one report I run every day, even if I don't do anything else with cognos. Instead of going through cognos connection, I had hoped I could create a favourite or quicklink in my browser of choice, however, whn I copy the link the button points to and put that into a "clear" browser tab, the browser will open the folder containing the report, not the run with options screen. Is there any way to get that to work?


Kind regards,
Mark.

Hi Mark,

Please follow below steps:
•   Go to report properties and  Report tab.
•   Change the Default action to Run the report.
•   Got General tab and click on "View the search path, ID and URL"
•   Try to copy "Default action URL:" and save in your favorites

When you select the link in your Favorites, then report automatically run.
Let me know if you need more information.

Regards,
Suresh
