BEx 3.5 with SAP GUI 7.10 missing + sign expanding InfoAreas

157 Views

I am running SAP GUI 7.10 (patch 5) with BI 7 Addon (patch 3) and BW3.5 Add-on (patch 2)--all are the most current available at this time. The client PC's are XP, Office 2003 SP3. Also, to fix another error, I installed Office KB907417 per SAP Note 1025122.

This problem only occurs when launching BEx Analyzer 3.5 via RRMX from the BW GUI, regardless of a BI7 system or a BW3.5 system. If BEx 3.5 is opened directly via Start, Programs, Business Explorer, then the problem does not occur.

The problem itself is that when selecting queries by InfoArea, the plus ➕ sign to expand the InfoArea is missing. I am unable to highlight an InfoArea either. However, if i click on one, although it does not highlight, if I use the + sign on my keyboard, it will expand. Similarly, I can use the minus ➖ sign to collapse.

This problem also occurs when selecting workbooks by role, and in Query Designer, when trying to expand dimensions and InfoObjects.
