Duplicate functionality of viewer toolbar

Question

<span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Verdana"><p>With Webelements is it possible to duplicate some of the functionality of the Crystal viewer toolbar. </p><p>Such as:</p><p>Export - We want the user to be able to export to Excel and rtf only. Can we use Webelements create a link button to export to either Excel or rtf?</p><p>Page Navigation - while the Crystal viewer toolbar has page navigation, we want to limit what the user can do, so we want the page navigation buttons, but not print or refresh. Can this be done?</p><p>Thanks</p></span>

Answer 1

hello,
below is some later syntax (beta syntax so you'll be a test subject) for hiding the above mentioned buttons. for your test report, replace the syntax in your weviewer custom function with the syntax below. the switches for hiding / showing the buttons are in the function itself and are not function parameters...i.e. the buttons are on by default, but for a particular report if you want to hide the buttons, disconnect the function from the repository and change the "true" to "false" for the applicable buttons.
let me know what you think. also, this does not negate the user from refreshing a report using the right click menu or the f5 button. you should also disable refresh in the cmc at the object level. see your admin person on that one.
