2.2.6 Skin templateIf the project is associated with a skin template, this skin template can be selected for your reports. Yourreports and your application will have the same style. This skin template can be modified once the report hasbeen created. See “Changing the report template associated with a report”, page 61 for more details.Caution: Depending on the type of printer, the reports containing images may take quite a long time to print.2.2.7 Print format of the reportThe format of a report is used to configure:• the orientation of the report.• the paper format.• the print margins.• the number of columns in the report. By default, a report contains one column. If the report has morethan one column, the report is said to be "multi-column".For a "Label" report, you can also configure:• the format of the label sheet.• the spacing between the labels.This information can be modified once the report is created. See “Describing and handling a report”, page 53for more details.2.3 Saving the reportTo save a report, click among the quick access buttons of the ribbon (CTRL + S). The extension of thecreated report file is ".WDE".The report is automatically included in the list of project elements.If you are using the standard report editor, the reports will be included in the library when creating the executable(WinDev/WinDev Mobile) or when creating the site library (WebDev).2.4 Running the report testRunning the test of a single report allows you to run the current report in WinDev, WebDev or WinDev Mobile.Like for the project test, the debugger can be started as soon as a problem occurs.Note: The test of the report is run on the development computer only. The data used for test corresponds tothe data found on the development computer.The following processes are run during the test of a report:• initialization process of the project.• processes associated with the report.• processes associated with the report blocks.• processes associated with the report controls.Note: The report test is available for the reports associated with no data source and for the reports based ona query, a data file or a text file. For the other types of reports, you must run the test of the window (page orproject) from which the report is printed.38Part 1: Report editor
2.4.1 Running the testTo run the test of the current report:1. Click among the quick access buttons of the ribbon (F9). A screen allows you to choose the printmode of the report.The available options are:• Print preview: used to preview the report.• Printer: the report is printed on the default printer.• HTML file: the report is saved in an HTML file and displayed in the Internet browser installed on thecomputer.• RTF file: the report is saved in a RTF file and displayed in a text editor (Word for example).• PDF file: the report is saved in a PDF file and displayed in a PDF viewer (Adobe Acrobat for example).• Generic PDF file: the report is saved in a generic PDF file (independent of the printer) and displayed ina PDF viewer (Acrobat Reader for example).See “Printing a report”, page 40 for more details.2. Choose the print mode and validate. If your report is not saved, WinDev, WinDev Mobile or WebDevautomatically proposes to save it under the name given in the wizard for report creation.3. Specify the additional information if necessary:•for a report with bounds, a window allows you to enter the report bounds. See “Bounded report”,page 45 for more details.•if the report is based on a query with parameters, a window allows you to enter the parameters of thequery. See “Report based on a query with parameters”, page 46 for more details.•If the report expects parameters, give a default value to the parameters in the declaration of parameters.See “Creating a report with parameters”, page 139 for more details.2.4.2 Stopping the testSeveral methods can be used to stop the test:• 1st method: Close the preview of the report whose test is currently run. The current editor at the timethe test was started is displayed.• 2nd method: Go back to the editor via the taskbar (or press [Alt]+[Tab]) and confirm that the test mustbe stopped. The current editor at the time the test was started is displayed.• 3rd method: Go back to the editor via the task bar (or press [Alt]+[Tab]) and click ("End the test")found in the "Debugger" pane.Part 1: Report editor 39
