ID Works Basic Version 5 Administrator’s Guide
Report Window
You use the Report window in ID Works Designer to create the report
block. It contains the following parts.
Title bar—The title bar shows the name of the report you are editing
(Student Class Report in the example above). The title bar changes
color when the window is active.
Rulers—The rulers help you locate and size report fields. You turn the
rulers on and off by using the View menu. You specify the unit of
measure to display in the computer’s Control Panel Regional Settings
Properties dialog box, Number tab, Measurement system setting.
Close your project before changing the unit of measure to display.
Design area—This area represents the report block and shows how a
single record will look when printed. You place all report fields in this
area.
Scroll bars appear if the size of the Report window is smaller than the
size of the report. Use the Maximize button (on the title bar) to make
the Report window as large as possible.
