Report Part Drilldown

[SantabarbaraKid]

Hey,
Does anyone have a good step by step process for using Report part Drilldown functionality? I have looked at the help and I still don't get it. I looked for a white paper on the BOBJ site and there was nothing. I just want to know what I have to do to make them work. It's a two step process correct? any help is appreciated!!!

You should post your software version for accurate technical information.

I'm unfamiliar with the term Report Part Drilldown.

Crystal has drilldown capabilities, and it's fairly straightforward. Create a group, right click the details and select Hide.

When they click on something in the Group, it will expose the details in a different window/tab.

Here are the sample reports, which covers drilldown:

Thanks for the response, I am using V10. I know about drill down, but Crystal introduced in V9 of reports the ability to use hyperlinks to drilldown on a report part. For instance you have a chart in report A and you want to call that chart in report B. Using Report part drill down you can hyperlink to that chart, not the whole report, just the chart. I just can't figure out how to get this to work. I know it involves two steps, but the help just isn't clear.
