Hide Refresh link for no results view for OBIEE 11g

Use the following workaround to remove the refresh link when the report has no data.Reports with results returned do not display the refresh links by default. The change will impact on all the reports; you cannot make changes only for a particular set of reports/dashboards.This is the solution for 11g
Do the following if you are not concerned with multiple languages (All messages will default to l_en if a language-specific version is not found)

  1. Navigate to $ORACLE_BI_HOME\Oracle_BI1\bifoundation\web\msgdb\l_en\messages
  2. Copy and rename viewmessages.xml to viewmessages.orig
  3. Edit the viewmessages.xml Locate: Refresh : <WebMessage name="kmsgEVCLinkRefresh"><HTML>Refresh</HTML></WebMessage>
  4. Remove the HTML section, so it'll read: <WebMessage name="kmsgEVCLinkRefresh"></WebMessage>
  5. Restart the OBIEE services
