Hello,

I have a requirement in Excel Report, I Executed a report it opened in Excel Format in "Sheet 1", in that I have a drill-down option.
If I click on that, have to open the report in the same Excel file with a new worksheet not in a new excel file.
Is there a way to achieve this?

Simple answer is no. It is not under the control of WebFOCUS even though the original file is created from WebFOCUS.

The "drilldown" would be entirely in the control of MS Excel so you would have to investigate "how to" perhaps using VBA.

Not to be a pain, but is this not a Drill Thru and not a drill down?

I agree with Tony, its probably a VBA solution you need, and I don't think it will be pretty.
