Need help with macro to split a report

Hi,

We are using Business Objects 6.5 and have a report.

The report has couple of blocks and it is a master-detail with a section on a dimension attribute.

Need to split this one big report into multiple reports and save as Excel spreadsheets using the section value as filter. If any body is aware of such a thing, could you share a piece of code or sample.

Regards,
Vaidhy

I’m pretty sure that you can’t access section information from the SDK. Sounds like something that can be easily done via the Publisher.

An alternative would be to create a prompt for whatever you are sectioning by and then you can (via your macro) feed in the prompt values for the various sections of your report, saving a copy of the report to Excel as your program loops through a new prompt value.
