It lacks the id of the catalog you are try to open. Go to the catalog in maintain item, open it and click try it button. Now use the link and copy the part as suggested in the post and try using it ..


ok Kalaiarasan P i will try that... andKnow Your Expert | Pradeep Sharma it said it was a microsoft /reg key issue that needs to be changed and pushed out to the whole company the way URL's open in word....thanks i will try kalaiarasan P suggestion ill get to you all shortly!
