Hi Group,
Is it possible to add a Navigation buttons to a report and if so how?

I've got a report. When the user clicks on this report title, it launches another report. They may want to go back to the first report. How can this be achieved?

I'm passing the report parameter as a string in the URL and not using the Report Manager Interface
Regards
 
I have done reports that a have a link to a pie chart. Isn't there a "Back" button when the second report displays that will take the user to the previous report? It is a back arrow that sits next to the stop and refresh button just above the report.
 
Ok, I was wrong. Those buttons only exist in the development environment. However, the back button for the browser works.
 
It is my understanding that functionality like this is much improved in RS 2005. However, I know of good way to do it in 2000.

There is the "embed image" option that you might be able to hide the URL in the embedded image and see if that works to take the user back to where they need to be. Other than that, I'm not sure how to do this appropriately.

Sorry.
