Creating a Customized Reports Page

The default VTS Reports page (see Reports Page) enables you to generate reports on the data in your application. In addition to the default Reports page, VTS provides you with a specialized set of tools that enable you to create your own custom Reports page. This section provides instructions on creating such a page using the tools in the Report Tools library.

The Report Tools library can be accessed using the Select Library dialog that opens when you click the Library button in the Configuration Toolbox. This library consists of a series of tools, each of which may be customized to for your custom Reports Page.

Before you begin to configure your custom report tools, you must consider their location. You might wish to create a full-sized application page, or a dialog-sized page upon which to place them. The section that follows discusses possibilities for the configuration of a custom Reports Page.
