Zusammenfassung:A database interface for generating drill-through pats for various data cubes, derived from different report generating applications is disclosed. The interface comprises: (a) means for accepting a request from a user for data; (b) means for translating the request into a drill-through path selected from a plurality of possible drill-through paths between a source and a target; (c) means for applying one or more parameters to the selected drill-rough path to produce a valid drill-through path and to transfer the requested data over the valid drill-through path to an application; and (d) display means for displaying the requested data to the user.
