Title: Cognos8.3/8.4/10 capability in Bookmarks/TOC for excel format reports
Post by: pravin.cognos on 27 Feb 2012 12:47:30 AM
Dear All

We are using Cognos 8.2. All our reports are in Excel 2002 and PDF formats. The reports are of multiple pages. The users need a TOC on the second page.  I am sure that it is not possible to create a TOC in 8.2. So I tried to create bookmarks and obviously it is not working in the excel output format.

As I need to suggest alternatives, please let me know if Cognos 8.3/8.4/10 has this capability to make the TOC/bookmarks work in Excel 2002 fomart. Talking of TOC here, they are the page names hardcoded by me, not values in a table. I believe that bookmarks work in Excel 2007 but can't suggest the client to upgrade to MSOffice 2007.

Sorry, my question is repeated quite a few times but I could not find any good answer specifically about Cognos8.3/8.4/10 capability in Bookmarks/TOC for excel format reports, in any community.

Need your help !!

Thanks,
Pravin
