Hi,

sorry for the unreadable subject.

Basically what I am trying to achieve is the following.

I have split up the Microsoft Patches into Baselines based on that release month. This is so I know exactly what I have patched each month.

Is there a way to merge all my baselines into a report and then report either a server or an AD group or a group I have created manually or automatically against these merged baselines.

I have seen the reports posted on here before but my reporting skills are not good enough to edit these or even create them.

Thanks

Lee

I think it is possible with a custom report, but it sounds pretty complicated and I am not sure it will be easy…

Note that when 8.0 comes out (hopefully shortly), the web reports have extensive changes and hopefully they will help some of these reporting questions (although I am not sure if this exact report will be available).

Cheers Ben

I thought it wouldnt be easy. is it easy therefore to create a single baseline from all my monthly baselines? and then report against that? or do I need to manully add all the fixlets in the baseline to another single baseline for reporting?
