Viewing Alert Triggers

I have a report created in CR9.0 viewing on CE9.0.
This report as a possibility of 3 Alert Triggers. When executing the report in CR, I get a screen which allows me to view the individual records if one (or any)of the Alert conditions are met.

When viewing the same report in CE, there is no selection to view the records of any of the Alerts.

How does the user know of an Alert in CE?
 
There's a separate tab/link for Alerts - yes that sux. You could modify the code to pop up the alerts before displaying the report.

I am not really sure where the tab/link is located, but if it is in where the View, Schedule, History, Alerts tabs are when you select the report, I am getting the Alerts tab, but when selecting Alerts I get the message that no alerts are available.

I know that this report has Alerts Triggered. Is there someing that has to be "turned on" for the Alert records to be stored?
 
The report has to be scheduled - The alerts are not triggered from a View On Demand.

I have an alert in a report, CR10, I run the report in CE10 and have set an alert trigger to be emailed.

Two things.

My default viewer is ActiveX, when I click the link from the email sent it looks to be using the DHTML viewer, can this be changed.

My report runs each day, if I look at the history of the report and want to view the data in the alert I can not see where this is possible, the instance has the yellow icon above it. Any ideas.

thanks,

Paulo
 
Paulo -- I understand how the alerts work, but where do you set an "alert trigger" to be emailed? Is there somewhere you can do this that is new in CE10? I don't think I've run accross that yet.
