A script to get the number of reports and the name of them in a WEBI Document

Hi,

this blog post is about how to get the number and the names of reports in a document.

As this is a Javascript code, it will only work when viewing-editing the document in HTML mode.

The information about the reports can be found in webiViewFrame.DS.arrReports, the number of reports is given by webiViewFrame.DS.arrReports.length and the name of them is given, looping through arrReports

for (i=0;i<webiViewFrame.DS.arrReports.length-1;++i)

{ name = webiViewFrame.DS.arrReports[i].name }

To set the script, drop a blank cell over the report and set it's text to

<script>

numberOfReports = webiViewFrame.DS.arrReports.length;

for(i = 0;i<numberOfReports-1;++i)

alert(webiViewFrame.DS.arrReports[i].name);

</script>

Set the property of the cell "Read As" to HTML.

Cheers,

Rogerio
