Estimated reading time: 2 minutesWhat is a ReportDrill
ReportDrill is widely used throughout INTERJECT as a way to connect and pass information between workbooks. Drilling takes a defined input and passes it in as a parameter to another workbook, similar to hyperlinks on a web page: Depending on the types of input behind the hyperlink, more detailed and specific information can be viewed. While there are few codes crucial to the process, they can be structured in ways that make them very powerful. Find examples of Drilling in Creating Your Own Drills .
