Use this dialog to share a single workbook with multiple database users (or roles) in one operation. For example, you might have created a workbook for analyzing sales and want to publish the workbook to a group of Discoverer Viewer users.
You can also use this dialog to see the workbooks that Discoverer users have access to.
Note: To give a single Discoverer user access to many workbooks in one operation, use the "How to share multiple workbooks with a single Discoverer user".
For more information, see:
"About sharing workbooks and security"
Workbook
This field displays the name of the currently selected workbook (that you selected in the Manage Workbooks dialog). To share a different workbook, click Cancel and select a different workbook in the Manage Workbooks dialog.
Note: Scheduled workbooks have a clock icon in front of the workbook name. If you share a scheduled workbook, you share all scheduled workbook results sets produced by that scheduled workbook. For more information, see "What are scheduled workbooks?".
Users
This area enables you to select users with which to share the workbook.
Search
Use these fields to search for the database users (or roles) to whom you want to share workbooks, as follows:
Use the left hand drop down list to specify whether to search for database users or roles (or both).
Use the middle drop down list to specify the criteria you want to use to match database users (or roles). For example, you might want to search for database usernames beginning with a particular letter.
Use the right hand field to specify text in the name of a database user (or role) you want to search for. If you leave this field empty and click Go, all database users (or roles) are displayed (depending on which value is selected in the left hand drop down list).
Note: Database users are represented by a person icon. Database roles are represented by a mask icon. For more information about selecting database users (or roles), see "About sharing workbooks".
