I am having trouble in drill URL from Excel.
The URL by default is taking &&IBIMR_DRILL as
&&IBIMR_drill=IBFS,RUNFEX,IBIF_ex,true

and when passing colon ':' parameter its going as %3A in excel EDIT hyperlink . If I manually correct the URL and paste in explorer it works.

I have set the FOCEXECURL as below

-SET &FOCEXURL='http://&server_name/ibi_apps/WFServlet?IBIC_server=EDASERVE'|'&';
SET FOCEXURL=&FOCEXURL

The URL goes as below
http://&SERVER_NAME/ibi_apps/W...AT_CD=0&RPTFMT=EXL2K


In this URL the parameter fails but when I manually put quotes around &NETWORK='A' it works .

From where is &&IBIMR_drill coming and why is the single quote even if i put manually going off and when editing URL it works.

In previous company I had called content tree fex using Javascript function call and passing parameters through it.

I moved the fex to EDASERVE and it works.

Thanks,
Rajna
