Hi,
I have a problem updating several reports which either time out or take ages to respond when making simple changes. It doesn't seem to matter which mode you are in while making a change (whether in data or structure mode) nor the tool used (Webi or Rich Client).
I have read in other forums users reporting similiar problems which results in an error unable to get the first page of the report.
To ensure it wasn't an issue inherited from a previous version of BO (as these reports were originally written in BOXI BI 3.1) I recreated the report from scratch only to hit the same issue when populating the report with various formula.
When this occurs (i.e. the unable to get the first page of the report error occurring) I am forced to save then close the Rich Client and then have to re-open the file each and every time.
We are currently using Business Objects BI4.0 SP6 Edge. These reports consist of some 600+ variables however they never caused this issue in the older version of BO.
Please can someone suggest a solution to this issue as it is taking me much longer to make simple updates to these reports when it ought to be straight forward.
Cheers
Ian
