Exercise 4:Adding a Password and a Report Description
Add a password and description
1. Type the password PASS1 in the Report Specification Password
field.
2. Press Tab to get to the Report Description field.
3. Type the optional description Customer Details Report: Tutorial
Lesson 2 in the Report Description field.
This report description is a useful place to enter a short comment
about the purpose of the report. If you return to the report
specification later, you can see the purpose of the report at a
glance, without having to look more deeply into the specification.
4. This report uses the standard paper type, length, width, number of
horizontal pages, and the standard character set for string
sorting. Therefore, accept the defaults that appear and do not
change the fields for these settings.
5. Notice the SQL Transaction Isolation Level field. You can ignore
this field for the tutorial. It is used for SQL data. Using SQL
data is described fully in the HP ALLBASE/BRW Reference Manual.
6. Look at the USE Access of Report field. You can ignore this field
for now. This field is used to copy access information from
another report.
7. Look at the Final Access Table field on the Define Report screen.
It is currently blank. When you are finished defining the tables
for the report (in the next exercise), BRW provides the name of
your final table here. Although you can define many tables (known
as intermediate tables) for the report, only the final table is
listed here. The final access table incorporates all the
intermediate tables.
8. Press Enter.
BRW displays the message "Report modified" to tell you that the
changes were made.
