Can anyone recommend a good book or hands on training(free) website  for learning active reports.  I am experieced in report studio but faitly new to active reports and need a  "for dummies" type training to learn more.  Thanks for any help.

The Active Report Cookbook is a good place to start: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/data/library/cognos/reporting/active_report/page593.html

There are a variety of samples available that are handy to understand possibilities and then see how the various techniques can be implemented: ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/data/sw-library/cognos/mobile/All/index.html

It is all a bit mind-bending at first but fun once you get the hang of things. Good luck!

Yes, "mind bending"  definitely.    I've been assigned the task of modifying an existing active report dashboard and I'm finding it somewhat challenging. Thank you.
