Full path for Hyperlink

lnallamalli

Hi, Can anyone help us how to give full path for drill down.

I am able to give only relative path in hyper link Drill-through option. which is working fine as long as parent rptdesign file and sub reports are in the original folder structure.

Drill down is not working when moving parent file to any other folder (subreports stays always in a fixed folder location.)

Folder1\Folder2\parent.rptdesign
Folder1\Folder2\subfolder\child.rptdesign

In parent.rptdesign, i am able to give hyperlink path "subfolder\child.rptdesign"

Now, Our users, copying parent.rptdesign to their user folders say "Folder1\user1" or "Folder1\user2" etc and customizing as per their needs.
when doing so, drill down is not working. is there a way to specify full path "Folder1\Folder2\subfolder\child.rptdesign" in parent.rptdesign file with out hard coding.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks,
Prasad

What development environment are you using? In *nix systems from bash you could use pwd to get the full directory path, but it'll be hard coded, you can also use report parameters to ask the user where the file is stored before the report is ran and pass that input to the report.
