Drill-Down Components

edited May 2003 in End User
Hello,

I have a problem with the drill-down component! I have mimiced the
drill-down demo procedure, i.e. put a subreport and set the drill-down
component to one of my master's pipeline dbtexts, and in the preview it
works fine!
The minute I'm trying to execute my report in my Client, it prints fine, but
my dbtext cannot be clicked - enen though the mouse icon does change to
'hand' - in order to expand the detail.

My question is: Do we have to specifically program the client to support
drill-down reports OR is there some property in the report that I can
change?

For your information, our program creates the report in the server and
creates an archive file which is then sent to the client for preview!

Looking forward for your reply
Mirto

    Mirto,

    Drilldown reports are not supported using report archive files. They need
    to be live reports to support drilldown. There may be a workaround using
    parameters in the future, but this is purely theoretical.
