Deski XI 3- How to purge several documents

Hi,

Is it possible to purge several documents in a same time ? I know how to purge one document (open the document and click on the Purge Button for each Data Provider) but I have many many documents…
Is it the only solution ?

Thank you very much !!

Hi,

There is no other way how to do it except perhaps automatizing the task using VBA.

Honestly the best solution is to purge all of your documents and export the purged documents to the repository (or saved into a different folder). Then all you need to do is open the purged reports and refresh them as necessary.

Thank you for your answer…
I’m going to purge and export my 512 reports one by one…

yes, it exists a way using sdk but I noticed a lot of issues in process when reports have more than one dp
