Report Builder: Pulling Heading text and Heading Number?
I have in DOORS a module that has objects of artifact type "Heading"(in RDNG's System). So, my RDNG module is structured correctly:
"3.0 Requirements"
"3.1 More Requirements"
These Headings were "artifact type" as "Heading" (part of RDNG system).
Those who have imported Requirements documents into RDNG may know that Objects typed as Heading allows the user to edit the text, and not the numbers(not directly).
QUESTION:
Via Report Builder, I need to generate a Report that "pulls" out both the Heading number "And" Heading Text, i.e.;
"3.0 Requirements"
"3.1 More Requirements"
In my Report Builder, I ran a script that has this line:
(Object) Type is Heading
that displays the the following:
"Requirements"
"More Requirements"
Question:
Does the Report Builder have "any feature" that allows me to generate both the Heading Number along with its Heading Text from the DOORS module? In short, I need to auto generate a listing like this:
"3.0 Requirements"
"3.1 More Requirements"

Alernative Solution on Exporting Paragraph/Section verbiage and its numerics
(many of you may know this already):
Memory Refresh: Within this Conversation Thread:
For Objects artifact typed "Heading":
- It's been established that the Report Builder can pull the Heading's Verbiage.
- It cannot pull the Heading Numeric(i.e. 1.0, 1.1, 2.1, 21.2, etc.).
Yet, there is an alternative "no cost" method (Outside of the Report Builder) that
allows the exporting of a
Heading's Numeric and its Verbiage:
Within the Module, create a View that contains the "Section" column Displayed.
Within the Module, use the feature "Generate a Report for this View" (accessible via the Triple Bar icon).

For DNG, JRS does not contain information about module structure, so you're not going to get numbered headings. It's really what RPE is for.
I am not IBM, but I do a LOT of RPE and JRS work.
Thanks on that, Carlos. I subscribed to your question which means I will be emailed any Forum updates to your question.
