Hi all!
I'm using CR 8.5, and delivering to users via CE. Does anyone have a good solution to prevent a user from drilling on a subreport object?
My report contains a subreport in the report footer. When the user floats their cursor over it, the cursor changes to a magnifying glass (i.e. drill-down); they double-click, & a new preview tab opens showing just the subreport. This new tab doesn't "add value" and in fact confuses the user (who might wonder where the top of the report has gone).
So, I'd like to prevent the user from being able to drill on the subreport. One solution is to put a text box on top of the subreport (because you can't drill on a text constant), but since the subreport is of variable length, this isn't practical. Any better solutions??
Thanks!
Betty
