Querying User Rights for Create Document for Webi

Question

HI all,
We developed a .NET application that allows a user to create Webi documents if they have access rights.  This worked in Business Objects XI R2 and we're upgrading to BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1.  Our VB.NET code is as follows:
     Dim webIApplication As InfoObject
     webIApplication = istore.Query("SELECT * FROM CI_APPOBJECTS WHERE SI_ID = " &     applicationID.ToString()).Item(1)
     If webIApplication.SecurityInfo.CheckRight(17170446) Then
                permissionOK = True
     End If
This right used to allow a user to create a webi document, however, this right must have changed in the new version, since checking this right always returns false.  We did verify that this user has rights when using the built in Infoview, and it works properly.  We have been unable to determine the new right ID, or if this is still the proper way to check for such rights.  Thanks for any information you can provide.

Hi,
I'm trying to do the same in Java with a 3.0 but my code below is not working do you have an idea of what is wrong ?
ISessionMgr sm = CrystalEnterprise.getSessionMgr();
   IEnterpriseSession _es = sm.logon("Niko", "", "machine", "secEnterprise");
   ISecurityInfoMgr isim = _es.getSecurityInfoMgr();
   ISecRights iMyRights = isim.getRights();  
   IInfoStore iStore = (IInfoStore) _es.getService("InfoStore");
   IInfoObjects rUsers = iStore.query("select * from ci_systemobjects where si_kind like 'WebIntelligence'");
      IInfoObject rUser = (IInfoObject)rUsers.get(0);
     int iObjectId = rUser.getID();
   IPluginBasedRightIDs ip = rUser.getSecurityInfo2().getKnownRightsByPlugin();
   java.util.Map toto = ip.getPluginCustomRights();
   IRightID[] irids= (IRightID[])toto.get("CrystalEnterprise.WebIntelligence");
   Locale myLo = new Locale("FRENCH");
   Locale lyLO2 = myLo.FRENCH;
   for (int i=0;i<irids.length;i++) {
    if (irids<i>.getBaseID()==14) {
     System.out.print(irids<i>.getDescription(lyLO2) + " -->" + irids<i>.getBaseID() + " -- " + irids<i>.getRightPluginKind() + " = ");
     int iResult = iMyRights.checkRight(irids<i>.getBaseID(), irids<i>.getRightPluginKind(), iObjectId);
     System.out.println(iResult == ISecurityResult.CE_SEC_GRANTED);
Any help is appreciate. Consulting is engaged on a project related to this dev and it is hurry.
Regards,
