How to retrieve WebI reports with a specific FILTER

Dear All ,

Pardon me if it’s a CROSS-POST but my search results returned nothing and browsing through 280+ pages to get the answer is a pain .I’m a NEWBIE in BO and need your help in this .

REQUIREMENT: We have clients who have used ‘Business Unit’ Filter in many webI reports and used a particular HARD-CODED value in the filter to get the results .Now ,the business has changed and that particular Business Unit name has changed .So, obviously under this current scenario those reports won’t run .So we need to find out what are the reports that are using that value in ‘Business Unit’ filter and we need a list of them including the owner of the Report .

I tried the WID_scanner but what I found that it returns the list of objects that are used in a report but does not mention which one is filter[may be I’m missing something here while using it] .So ,I can’t narrow down the search with that .

Can anybody help me in this ?

I am new to SDK also so if you have any code then please explain it a bit so that I get a clear picture .
