First of all, Thanks for the replies. ...all you have to do is to create a new thread (or fetch one from a thread pool), and invoke the "runReport" web service operation on this thread. How is it that I "fetch" a thread from a thread pool? Once I do this, is it then possible to have a notification sent, stating that the job has finished execution? Also, other than the docs that are bundled, is there any other documentation of the import/export tool and how it could be used in a web application? I am struggling with this idea as well... Please help. Post edited by: codyjasperForge, at: 2007/11/12 18:08
