Hi Cognos Gurus,

Lets say I have a report with some hyperlinks. User clicks on the hyperlink and a new report opens up (dril-through). Can I some how keep a count of how many times the hyperlink is clicked?

I know each individual report is specific to the that particular user and is static. But is there a way?

Or lets say can I keep a log of how many times the hyperlink is clicked irrespective of any particular user? If I can get a log (may be writing to a file or table), then I can do a count on the same.

Thanks tons for your help !!!
 
Report usage should be possible through the audit database. It will not record clicked hyperlinks but it should record reports executed. If your drill through report is always accessed from a parent, then the auditing may prove usefull.
