Hi All,
 
I am using drill down in the dashboard panel to link to a report. The drill down does not work if the report has '&' in the name. I tried using & and also used CDATA but no luck. Looking for help to see if anyone has faced the similar issue or know how to resolve.
 
Thanks.

Howdy. I believe that is answered by Niket in this answers: Escaping Characters in a Drilldown 

Long story short, to create the token use eval instead of set.

I am simply using 'Link to report' option in drill down editor and the report I am linking to has '&' in the name.
