Dynamic Report Tab Naming

Hi all

I have to create separate report tabs dynamically whereas the report tab names base
on the result of a special data provider called DPTabNames. Simplified he looks like this:

DPTabName:

T1
T2
T3

Tn

I started with Create report tab and filter for each value (thanks to Dwayne Hoffpauir)
but I don’t know how to code it all together:

  • reading the values from the special data provider DPTabName => ???
  • duplicate the initial report (T0) to T1 … Tn
  • set report’s global filter based on report’s tab name (y=f(T1), y=f(T2), etc.) => ???
  • finally set the new tab name (T1, T2, …)

Any ideas how this can be implemented?

Regards,
Michael
