A computer readable medium includes executable instructions to create a report; augment the report with metadata including a report identifier and parameter information; and export the report and metadata to a non-report electronic document.

Augmenting a report with metadata for export to a non-report document

A computer readable medium includes executable instructions to monitor the exchange of messages between a first computer and a second computer in a network. Context from the messages is assembled. The context is used to form a query. The query is applied to one or more report documents.

Apparatus and method for supplying report content within collaborative frameworks

A computer implemented method includes sending to a report server a first request for report content initiated by a first user. The report content is served to the first user. The report content is displayed to the first user. A second request from the first user is sent to the report server to share the report content with a second user. That the second user has permission to view the report content is confirmed. The report content is served and displayed to the second user.

Apparatus and method for report sharing within an instant messaging framework

A computer readable medium includes executable instructions to facilitate an instant messaging conversation between a first computer and a second computer on a network. A first request for a report specified by the user of the first computer is processed. A first portion of the report is returned to a first output device of the first computer and a second output device of the second computer. An interaction signal characterizing an interaction with the first portion of the report is processed to produce a second portion of the report. The second portion of the report is routed to the first output device of the first computer and the second output device of the second computer.
