Creating a new TreeView report
456 InfoMaker
Example
This sample TreeView report uses the department and employee tables in the
EAS Demo DB database and has two TreeView levels. The first level is the
department name. The second level is the city where each employee resides.
The detail data for each employee is grouped in TreeView leaf nodes under
these two levels.
Similarities to the
Group presentation
style
Creating and using a TreeView report is similar to creating and using a Group
report. However, with the TreeView report, you can click the state icon to
expand and collapse nodes.
The state icon in a TreeView DataWindow is a plus sign (+) when the node is
collapsed and a minus sign (-) when the node is expanded. When a node is
expanded, connecting lines display by default to show more detail and indicate
how the parent data connects with the child data. When a node is collapsed,
only the parent data displays; the detail data does not.
Creating a new TreeView report
You use the TreeView wizard and the Report painter to create a TreeView
report.
