Creating an application command line link using the Property Inspector

Note: This procedure applies to paper-based reports output to a PDF file. This is unrelated to HTML that might be generated when you run a JSP-based Web report (when you click the Run Web Layout button in the toolbar, or choose Programright arrowRun Web Layout).

To associate a command with an object in your report:

  1. In the Object Navigator, expand the Paper Layout node, then expand the node that contains the object with which you want to associate a command.   Note: If you are defining a template, you can select objects in the Margin.   Objects in the body are unknown until the template is applied to a report.

  2. Double-click the object with which you want to associate a command to display the Property Inspector.

  3. Under the Web Settings node, set the Application Command Line property to the command you want to execute when the object is clicked.   Note: A report output in PDF format can include both hyperlinks and application command line links.   If the Application Command Line property is set for an object, it will be applied to the object.   Otherwise, the Hyperlink property is applied.

Restrictions

An object that is associated with an application command line link cannot also be the source of a Web link (a hyperlink).
