SPECTRUM Reports
Software Release Notes Page 110
Known Reports Anomalies in SPECTRUM 6.0
Problem 1: On the Solaris platform, if a Rib file does not exist for a
selected model type, saving a file using the Statistics template under the
Report Formatter causes the file to be saved in the Templates directory
rather than in the Statistics directory.
Solution: Choose the Save As command and navigate to the appropriate
model type directory to save your file.
Problem 2: If a reports output directory specified in the Reports resource
file does not exist and you try to bring up the Reports Display, you get a
list of all files in the current directory.
Solution: Make a backup copy of the Reports resource file. Edit the
output directory parameter in the Reports resource file so it specifies a
valid directory.
Problem 3: Using the Window Manager to close windows may cause
inconsistent results.
Solution: Use the OK or Cancel buttons to close dialog boxes.
Problem 4: In the Report Formatter, if you attempt to add a Compute field
at the end of either the Line Data or Summary Data regions, data
corruption may occur.
Solution: If you need to place a Compute field at the end of a line, make
sure first that the Page Width setting is large enough to accommodate the
Compute field.
Problem 5: In the Report Formatter on the NT platform, if you preview the
Rib file currently being worked on, the last line may contain a couple of
extra characters.
Solution: The extraneous characters do not appear in the saved Rib file
or in the report.
