How to include the Dictionary in the Open Issues report?

Using both the standard and classic Open Issues report (Word format) in CC I am unable to get the Open Issues associated to Dictionary entries to display. For the standard Open Issues report nothing is displayed. When I use the classic report only the UC, REQ and Diagram issues are generated but not the ones associated to the Dictionary. I tried using the HTML report and it only generated the same list of Open Issues as the classic Word report.

Suggestions?

So I have gotten a little further with this issue and I am customizing the OpenIssues classic report but when I use the reference $tableOpenIssues for a dictionary item I get an error saying that the table does not exist. I have read the Custom Reporting documentation and it identifies that Open Issues exist for UCs, REQs and Diagrams. It makes no mention about Dictionary items but when I am in the Dictionary I have access to an Open Issues table and can assign them by item.

Is there a reference that I am missing?

Issues under Dictionary entries should show up in the Issues report (standard, not classic) using CaseComplete 2010R2. There is a bug in CaseComplete, however, that will not allow you to find open issues belonging to a particular dictionary element. I'm submitting a defect report for that right now.

You can work around this bug (not pretty, I know) by creating a report on open issues, filtering for those open issues with a parent type of Definition:

$repeatOpenIssuesSortParentName where ParentTypeName = Definition
Issue applies to : $ParentName
Issue : $Description
Assigned to : $AssignedTo
(add other stuff you want in here....)
$endRepeatOpenIssues

We've identified the problem and fixed it; this will be included in our next in-cycle release (late 2010/early 2011)

Ok, I upgraded to CCR2 with no avail. Then I tried the report snippet provided above and no dice. Just to clarify; your last response was addressing the fix to properly display the Open Issues for the Dictionary and the code snippet in the previous post should work around the problem. Is this the correct understanding?
