  We would love to move to Management Reporter, but it still does not support the Frx ROW LINKING. We literally have dozens of summary reports that link to our Frx detail rows.

  Hi Bruce I checked with Management Reporter Support team and got the following info: April posted a blog on this topic in the MR blog: blogs.msdn.com/.../management-reporter-advanced-reporting-scenarios-and-features.aspx This is the only option you will have for Row Linking in MR. There is a suggestion to add this functionality to MR.  You can vote on it here: connect.microsoft.com/.../management-reporter-row-linking Hope this helps David

  Hi David, the training material about Management Reporter 2.0 (course 80255A) mentions something about 2 different demo companies : Fabrikam Inc. and Fabrikam Europe Inc. (respectively FW & FWE)... I've never seen or hear about those databases... Did you know if they had ever existed (i.e. prior to TWO) ? or was that some spooky dream from an MR team member :-) ? Thanks and have a great time, Beat

  Hello Beat. There was some documentation (Training information) about the FW/FWE demo data. This information was from a Management Reporter version 1 demo image, which does not exist anymore.
