    Locating Reports in Business Objects Infoview using .net

    I am connecting to Business Objects Infoview XI R2 using C# .net.
    Now i wanted to know the code to traverse through various folders in my Infoview interface and locate a particular report.
    Then i want to insert prompts to the report for refreshing it.
    Kindly help me as to what methods of 'ReportEngine' or 'CrystalReports ' class should i use to loacte a particular report. Any samples can be very helpful.
    Thanks.

      Why not start with showing us what you've tried thus far. Unfortunately we're not a code writing service, we're a community that helps programmers who are willing to help themselves

        Code:
        using BusinessObjects.ReportEngine;
        using CrystalDecisions.Enterprise;
        
        namespace BO_Infoview
        {
            class Program
            {
                static void Main(string[] args)
                {
                    EnterpriseSession eSession;
                    SessionMgr eSessionMgr = new SessionMgr();
        
                    eSession = (eSessionMgr).Logon("username","pwd","cMS name", "authentication");
        
                }
            }
        }
        using this my console app is connecting to Business Objects XI R2.
        I myself am unaware of any methods to locate\traverse \refresh a report using .Net BO libraries. Hence posted a question if anyone who might have worked on similar application can help out.
        Would appreciate if anyone with previous use of BO with .net framework can give a lead. With that helping out myself would be easier.
