I am opening a public view in a browser launched inside a VB application. The public view offers a launch page for a set of reports that gives users the options to view report in either Excel 2K or PDF.

I use an ASP page to extract the windows credentials and use that as the MRE login.

The reports are displayed in the same browser window. (I tried the separate browser window option but the cookie is lost and I get a MRE login prompt again in the new window)

On my desktop I am able to launch the displayed report in a separate window, by clicking on the "Maximize Contents" icon. I am then able to save or print the report.

However when I launch the VB application and subsequently the report from a terminal server the "Maximize Contents" works only the first time. Subsequently, for any report, it gives me an "access denied" error.


Could anyone help resolve this issue?

Alternatively is there a way that I can have the excel or pdf menu available to the user in the embedded object?
