Drill-In PDF Report
Hi,

I am very new to WebFocus. I have a drill-in report that allows the user to click a hyperlink to see another report with more detail on the item selected. I have a need to allow an outside vendor to use this report without WF access. Is there a way to email the vendor this report and still allow the drill-in functionality to work?

Are you licensed for active reports? Only way I know.

We are not licensed for active reports. I will try this drill through and let you know my results. Thanks!

The drill through works fine for what we need. Thanks!

We did have a problem with the page numbering. Adobe lets the user know that there is 200 pages. However, WebFocus treats each "drill-through" as a separate report. For example, when I open the report, the bottom of the 1st page says page 1 of 3. Then, when I click to drill-through, it says page 10 of 54; however, the adobe software says it is page 13 of 200. It is a little confusing. Is there any way to fix this?
