Thanks for your helpful reply.
What I meant was to clone the existing report tab, but this is better,
actually, since it means I can regenerate the report if it gets
closed.
I had already renamed the report, but I found that to active the "add
report" button I had to rename it to something else and then rename it
back. Is this a bug?
