Create a new classic report
Follow these steps to create a new classic report:
- Select Query--> Run to run a
query and obtain query results.
- Select Results--> Display Report from
either the main menu or a context menu.
The Report Wizard opens.
- Select Create a new report from the Report Wizard Type
page. Select Create a classic report from the Report Wizard
New Report page.
- Since this is a new classic report, and there is no assigned
form or formatting instructions, you must specify how the report
will be generated. You can select Generated based on the current query to
generate the report based on the way the query results currently
are formatted or you can select Default to generate the
report based on a very basic set of default formatting options. The
classic report opens.
- When the classic report opens, the Form menu becomes
available. Use the Form menu commands to specify the formatting
options that you want for the report.
- When you have completed specifying the form formatting options
that will be applied to the query results to create a classic report,
you can:
- print the report
- convert the report to a Visual Report
- convert the report to HTML
- change or update the data source
- export the report
- save the report
- save the form
