Known Reports Anomalies in SPECTRUM 6.5
SPECTRUM Software Release Notice Page 70
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: 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 that the Page Width setting is large enough to accommodate the
Compute field.
Problem 4: In the Report Formatter on the Windows 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.
Problem 5: On the Windows NT platform, colors on Up/Down Time report
pie graphs that have small percentages of uptime or downtime may not
appear correctly (either no color appears or colors are inverted).
Solution: This is not a problem with SPECTRUM Reports but rather with
a defect with Neuron Data (their defect #10660).
Problem 6: On the Windows NT platform, colors on Alarm report pie
graphs may not appear correctly or may be obscured. For example, pie
pieces are colored over by other pie pieces when values are close to zero (0).
Solution: This is not a problem with SPECTRUM Reports but rather a
limitation of Neuron Data.
Problem 7: On the Windows NT platform, a user who is not a member of
the Administrator’s group cannot run the Windows NT Scheduler. This is
a restriction of Microsoft’s Windows NT Schedule Service.
Solution: When Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 is installed on your PC,
the Windows NT 4.0 Schedule Service (Atsvc.exe) is upgraded to the
Task Scheduler Service (mstask.exe), which enables you to assign
different user accounts to run scheduled tasks.
