    In order to secure tables used in drill arounds, we have to search the .or files to find the associated tables; has any come up with an easier method to find the tables associated with a drill around?

      What I've done is run a Fiddler session and then do the drill... the captured Fiddler data will include the table name(s) that you need to secure, or unsecure.

        Look for a URL on the left of the Fiddler screen like /servlet/Router/Drill/Erp ...
        Click on that, then move to the right half of the Fiddler screen. Click on the Inspectors tab, and (I like to click on the 'Raw' tabs in both the upper and lower portions of the window) the fileName parameter will identify the table name.

          The URL dme lists the key name (ie. EMPSET1...) but not the table name.

            And using that information, you can determine the table name.
            1) select * from gen.filedef
            where prefix = 'EMP'; # Note: the first 3 char from your example above
            2) rngdbdump -ct gen filedef -f filename prefix -v prefix=EMP

              Another way is to use DrillExplorer builtin feature in LSA.
