OKay...so...I'm hip deep in a project to migrate from PP7 to Analysis Studio. A previous employee (no longer here) already migrated our reporting environment to Report Studio 8.
We've already gone through and replicated all of our old bookmarks as analyses (moderate pain, but worth the effort for change control anyhow)...but somehow we are having issues with the drill throughs.
We have a number of cubes that have drill throughs to currently existing R.S. 8 reports, and they work in the old environment. However, we have a few problems with the migration...
1. Is there a relatively easy way to mine the .cfx files to ensure we have a list of all cubes that have drill-through definitions? Cognos on a Windows server, I have file system access, so searches or other greplike tools can be in play. I'm just not good enough to figure out what the relevant strings would be.
2. Doing a test mapping, the drill through report is not returning any values. Looking at the passed parameters, it is unclear to me, is it passing the "use" value or the "display" value? Can I adjust that somewhere? I get the impression from reading other posts that I may have to change the logic we are using on our month filter, as in 7.x we had to convert to a string, where in 8, we need it to remain as a month. Am I interpreting that correctly?
