Universe is not showing in live office

Hi,

While trying to create query through universe, in live office, its not showing the universe, designed through Information design tool. I read in some discussion that Live office does not support unx, only unv files.

My queries are :

1) Is there any way to convert from .unx to .unv files?

2) If not, what is the other way to work with unx i.e. to create query through business universe and view the result data in xls?

3) Can one dashboard be connected/linked to other dashboards (to show related data)?

Thanks,

Poonam
