I want to be able to open InfoAssist to Edit an Existing Report by giving the users a list of Existing reports and allowing them to click on the report and have it open up Info Assist with the report already loaded and ready for editing. Has anybody done this?

Creating the report as a Reporting Object using InfoAssist is a way to achieve what you want. You create the Reporting Object in Developer Studio by clicking on the option to create with InfoAssist. After you save this object the user can click on the Reporting Object from the folder in the Domian Tree to run it or open it in InfoAssist. When they open it in InfoAssist they can change the report, apply filters, etc. and when they save these changes it becomes a report in the My Report folder. The changes that an individual user makes in InfoAssist does not change the original Reporting Object. Smiler

Thank you for this but it is not what I am after. I want to be able to present the user with a list of reports previously created and saved and allow them to click on the existing report and have it open back up in InfoAssist.
I do not want to present them with a list of Reporting Objects, just a list of previously created reports.
