How to change the name of the model when the HTML report is generated in erwin r9.7?
When creating a report, you used to be able to add "%ModelName" to the output for the HTML report to give it a nice welcome page with name of the model. That isn't working anymore. When looking at the HTML template there is a tag called "{RPT_SOLUTION_TITLE}" which gives the solution title. Are there any more of these tags or documentation of this. How to change the name of the model when the HTML report is generated in erwin r9.7?
Solution:
Regarding Solution Title, go to HTML Template at the location below:
C:\Program Files\erwin\Data Modeler r9\Report\Template\Template-Default
Therein, you will see {RPT_SOLUTION_TITLE} shown in Index.htm.
Even though it looks like a variable, it will only pick up the default value of the report solution name/title.
So if you need to use different report name, please just type in the new model report name in the window below:
1. Open a model and Launch Report Designer
2. Run any report, such as entity / attribute report
3. Click the icon "HTML" to open "Export Report" window
4. Go to "HTML" TAB to get the screen below. For Solution Title in HTML, you can change as desired. In the example below, the title "Report 'default' has been changed to "NEW MODEL REPORT NAME".
