If you rename a user class in Access Manager, will it have an impact in the corresponding ReportNet security? Will Cognos Connection still be able to recognize that user class? Will the user class need to be added to ReportNet roles again? I am trying to propose a change to an existing user...

christenhusz, Thanks for this useful information. I have a further question. There are 3 options for output to Excel. In Cognos Connection the buttons are displayed as Excel 2000, Excel 2000 Single Sheet and Excel 2002. Can you please tell me which RV_TOOLBAR_BUTTONS options for Excel refer to...

It seems like you're trying to do this in a Report Studio report. If you have access to Framework Manager, you should try creating Query Subjects based on the 2 subqueries--the good thing about Framework Manager is that you can type in SQL. You can then specify the join between the 2 Query...

Is it necessary to have the catalog in the same folder as the reports when running the report migration utility? If you have multiple report sets (multiple folders) going against the same catalog, do you need to have the catalog in each folder containing reports from that catalog?

I was talking about having more than one package from the same FM model, maybe some of those packages are sub-packages. In Cognos Connection, there isn't a way to organize related packages. The only solution seems to be to name them carefully.

I saw that but there's no info on which model or project that package was published from. Thanks.

Does anyone know if there's a way to tell, in Cognos Connection, which model or project a package was published from? Since subfolders aren't supported yet, it seems a bit awkward to manage. This refers to ReportNet version 1.02 MR1. Thanks.

Thanks. I found the information in dg_sdk.pdf, ch.11.

CindyW, Thanks. I'm looking through the examples, but I can't any that relate to audit. Can you be more specific? Thanks, S.

How do you get the URL of a report in order to pass it to another application (external JAVA appl)? Are the URL's stored in the Content Manager and, if so, how do you retrieve the information? Also, how would you pass security information when calling the report? We're trying to create a demo...

Is this an issue for ReportNet as well? If I plan to use stored procedure query subjects, can I specify a conditional layout with those qeury items?

My requirement is as follows: *User is prompted to select a report type and the report is run based on that selection. Each report has a different # of columns and group totals, so each report will have to have a separate layout. My question is, when you add a variable(string type) to set up...

I have to use an iqd with only two columns, a measure and an id. This is because the measure column comes from a different database. How do I deal with this? How does the allocation work for all the dimensions? Thanks.

i'm in the process of building a big cube. the model has 2 iqd's as sources. i haven't yet generated the cube, i just want to generate the categories locally (not on server) first, but transformer is hanging up. is there a way to limit or control category generation, say for a subset of the...

We just upgraded from DB2 (for mainframe OS/390) v6 to v7. Does anyone know exactly how to modify in the cogdmd2.ini file to reflect this upgrade? I have added sections (database functions, exceptions joins, etc) for v7 and merely copied the information related to v6. There's supposed to be...
