Report: Overview
The reporting tool allows you to create reports based around the results of other tools such as Selections, Cubes, Trees, Venns etc. The main feature of the Report is the ability to maintain a dynamic link between the report display and the tool within FastStats. This allows the report to be updated at the click of a button when the database has been refreshed.
The transfer to (Excel, Word, PowerPoint) and the copy and paste facility help you to also create reports manually but can not hold the dynamic link function described above.

The Report window initially displays as a grid split into a Header, Main Body and Footer. Buttons at the bottom left of the screen allow you to insert text and picture boxes as well as date and page type information. Items that you have generated can be dragged directly onto the body of the report as shown with the cube in the screen shot above. You can output the report as a PDF or Word 2003 or above document.
