great

you can display the IMAGE IN BACKGROUND there is very  easy

create a hyperlink only dont add <img scr= ""> in that link

steps 1:

after creating the hyper link right click on the cell

and select the format cell

and select the IMAGE FROM URL

AND PAST THE IMAGE URL THERE

it will display a static image in the background of the text

and when user click on the text then only child report will run

Do the procedure as follows


1) drag and drop empty cell

2) right click >hyperlink>read cell content as hyperlink

3) right click >hyperlink>new hyperlink

4) enter url ex:www.google.com -->parse

5)  properties-->read content as -->image from URl

6)properties Back ground image-->imageUrl -->enter file name with extension like(help.gif)


boimg: is not a function its a default location like (C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\images)


Note: make sure you give extension to that file name

try this;

There are two answer of your question based on the environment.

  1.   If you are using 4.x environment then we have direct option in "link document tab" which is responsible for hyperlink.
  2.   If you are using 3.x environment then you have to follow the below steps..

2.1 Change the Web Intelligence Preferences 'WEB' to 'Interactive'in Infoview.

2.2 You will able to see the option Link to document once you select the hyperlink.

if you use image URL


when you copy picture in server repository in a specified path earlier i said in thead then when ever yuo open infoview portal anywhere you will be able to display that image


if you use image from file


You will be seen that image only in that particular system .

Hi Sushma,

I don't think we can set image as a hyper link in WEBI.
Even i have the same requirement but it is not working for me also.

I guess we need to write some text also along with image so that it works as a hyper text.
