CR 2011 with BW Query - Can't see query field list

25 Views

Hi all.

I have just downloaded and installed the CR 2011 trial version. Installation appeared to go fine. I set up a report against a Microsoft Excel file without any problems.

I would now like to test a report against an existing BEx query designed using Query Designer. My BW version is 7.0. I set up the database connection and when I clicked on "Test Connection" it came back that the connection was fine. The query I want has been flagged as "Allow External Access" .

I have tried to set up a new report using both the menu path "SAP / Create New Report from a Query" and using the Databvase Expert, and get the same results either way. I get to the point where the report is in desgin mode, and I have the "Field Explorer" window visible. I click the plus-sign next to "Database Fields" and I see my query listed. But when I click the plus-sign next to the query name, absolutely nothing happens. No error message and no field list appears.

I've gone through the tutorial on setting up the MDX queries and I don't think I missed anything, but evidently I have. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this???

Thanks in advance.
