I am currently using Crystal Reports for Enterprise 4.0 SP04. I have a main report that contains several OpenDocument links to other reports. I'd like each of these reports to open in a new window. In the OpenDocument for BI 4.0 documentation, it states that the sWindow parameter is obselete, and to instead use the HTML anchor's target (target="_blank")attribute or an equivalent. I am unable to get this to work properly. My url looks something like this...
http://<servername>:<port>/BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=Aa6GrrM79cRAmaOSMGoadKI&sIDType=CUID&target="_blank"
The report does not open in a new window, in fact it opens a blank page within the same window. In the example that is used in the documentation, they are using an entire HTML hyperlink tag...
<a href="http://<servername>:<port>/BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/<platformSpecific>?iDocID=Aa6GrrM79cRAmaOSMGoadKI&sIDType=CUID" target="_blank">hyperlink text</a>).
Do I need to embed the HTML tag somehwere in my report (perhaps in a formula)? If I use sWindow=New I can get the report to open in a new window...however the documentation states that this particular command is obsolete since XI3.1 SP3, so I am hesitant to use it.
Any ideas as to what I am missing here?
Thanks!
