HP ALLBASE/BRW Tutorial

Exercise 1:Creating the Second Report 

In this lesson, you learn to create a new report by copying an existing
one.  If you ended your BRW session after the last lesson, restart BRW.
See Lesson 1 if you need help in restarting BRW.

   1.  At the Select Report screen, name the new report CUSTREP2.

   2.  Choose  Add Report.


            

   3.  At the prompt Copy from report, type CUSTREP1.

   4.  Press Enter.


            

   5.  At the password prompt, type the password PASS1

   6.  Press Enter.

BRW copies the first report you created (in lesson 2) and displays the
Define Report screen.


            

The message Report copied tells you that the report has been copied
successfully.

Define report 2 

If you need more help to do this task, review the steps for defining a
report as outlined in Lesson 2.

   1.  At the Define Report screen, type a password, PASS2 in the Report
       Specification Password field.

   2.  Type a description in the Report Description field.  For example:

            Customer Details Report:  Tutorial Lesson 3

       Since you aren't changing any of the other basic specifications
       (such as report width and so on), you don't need to change any of
       the other fields.

   3.  Press Enter.

BRW displays the message Report modified to tell you that the changes
were made.
