Answer:
Use the Layout DXL library:
from your SRS module select Insert / Column and then select the
"Layout DXL" radio button and press Browse. Scroll the list of the
library until you come to "Trace analysis across all modules (both open
and closed)". Press OK and give a title to the new column.

This layout DXL produces a "chapter" in the attribute column for each
link in a object containing path to the linked module, object ID
and Object Text.

I have an SRS whose requirements are linked out to objects in several other modules. For instance, my SRS requirement might be something like "The software shall activate Output A for 3 seconds." That requirement links up to a hardware spec that defines Output A, and to a performance spec that details the timing of the output (you get the idea). Anyway, since the links are related, I'd like to show them in the same column even though they go to different modules. The Wizard only lets me select one module per column....does anyone have a way to do this, or do I have to go into the DXL and hack it up? I don't know how to get the module ids that seem to be used in the DXL (nor am I real handy with the DXL yet...)

Anyway, thanks for any tips.

Brant

To get a module id, select the module and run the following DXL from the DOORS Explorer:

print uniqueID(getSelectedItem)

Also, on the 1st screen of the wizard, you can specify "All Modules", to get results for all modules.
I suppose that you can then edit the generated code to specify only the modules you are interested in, if you are not actually interested in links to all modules.

Thanks both of you. I ended up having to use the "Impact" analysis (versus the "Trace" analysis) since my links were out-links and not in-links, but that gave me what I wanted. I may need to tweak the DXL a bit since I only want the links to a few specific modules, but I think I can get it to work.

...and for future scripting efforts I now know how to get the module ID!

Thanks again.
