Placing a command button on a BUSOBJ report

Greetings!
I received a request to add an ‘approval’ button to the Business Objects report, so users can click on it every time they approve the results.
Is it feasible to accomlish this and how? Thanks in advance.
:hb:

Placing a button physically on the report is not possible. BusObj does not have a “drawing layer” (like Excel). However, you can add an item to a menu, and/or place a button on a toolbar using VBA.

Dwayne, thank you for your reply. I added the VB toolbar and created a button. However, it seems that I can’t find the way how to add it.

I’m not sure I followed that, but the SDK documentation walks you through toolbars fairly well. You can also find examples here in BOB’s Downloads. The copy data provider utility for example, adds a button to a menu item, and optionally creates a new toolbar if the add menu button fails.

No wonder, I got it wrong initially. Thanks for your help. :crazy_face:
