Back button for drilldown reports

Hereâ's a good question for the knowledgeable: I have been experimenting with
drilldown reports (where a report item is linked to a â'Jump to Reportâ'
action). In the designer there is a nifty little button that allows me to
move back to the previous report (level). This button does not seem apparent
in the Report Manager.
Am I missing something? I realize that there is IEâ's â'backâ' button however
that does not always return me to the previous report. For example if I
toggle the visibility of an item the browserâ's â'backâ' button will return me
to the previous state (hidden) as opposed to back to the report from which
this one was called.Yeah, there isn't one. I just put a back hyperlink in the header and footer
of each page and made sure when going back it sets the parameters to
whatever the default values are or in some cases whatever they were set to
the last time that report was visited.
