Report Wizard
Activates the wizard for creating reports.
Select the report properties in the following steps:
Report Wizard - Field Selection
Specifies the table or query for which you are creating the report, and which fields you wish to include in the report.
Report Wizard - Labeling Fields
Specifies how you want to label the fields.
Report Wizard - Grouping
You can group records in a report based on the values in one or more fields. Select the fields by which the resulting report will be grouped. You can group up to four fields in a report. When you group more than one field, OpenOffice.org nests the groups according to their group level.
Report Wizard - Sort Options
Select the fields by which to sort the report. Fields can be sorted by up to four levels, each either ascending or descending. Grouped fields can only be sorted within each group.
Report Wizard - Choose Layout
Choose the layout from different templates and styles, and choose landscape or portrait page orientation.
Report Wizard - Create Report
You can create the report as a static or dynamic report. When you open a dynamic report, it will display with the current data contents. When you open a static report, it will always display the same data from the time when the static report was created.
Cancel
Clicking Cancel closes a dialog without saving any changes made.
Back
View the selections in the dialog made in the previous step. The current settings remain unchanged. This button can only be activated from page two on.
Next
Click the Next button, and the Wizard uses the current dialog settings and proceeds to the next step. If you are on the last step, this button becomes Create.
