You could write a Livereport to do this, but you have not said whether you are MS SQL Server (and which version) or Oracle - it makes a big difference.

That said, with either RDBMS it is not simple.

You would need to find the relevant folders and their DataIDs, then for each walk the parent hierarchy to build the path.

A much simpler way is to use Livelink search.

Click the Advanced search button.

Click System Attributes.

Choose Object Type "Folders"

In the Additional Attributes pulldown, select Name - the screen refreshes and adds the Name: attribute field

Type in your required string - press Search.

The results will show the full path, paginated for convenience and it is Livelink enabled.
