Sample Reports

Some sample reports have been created to help you get started with the Report Composer function. By default, these are placed in the %PUBLIC%\Documents\Micro Focus\extend x.x.x\sample\acubench directory. The samples include both character and graphical reports, and each report builds on the functions learned in the previous report. Together, the reports demonstrate the range of available report controls, from a simple report containing only report labels and entry fields to complex reports with tables and grids. The sample reports all use the same Vision indexed data files: sales.dat and sales.vix; the data resides in the project's Data subdirectory.

The Reports sample project contains the following graphical report programs:

Program Description
Report1a This is a simple report that contains only entry fields and labels.
Report1b This report is designed in landscape orientation and is ordered into columns. It includes labels, entry fields, and a date time control.
