Crystal Reports "X" For Dummies® |
| Allen G. Taylor (Database Consultant, Oregon City, Oregon) |
| Crystal Reports X For Dummies is being updated to reflect the latest version of the Crystal Reports reporting tool. New features are being built into Crystal Reports to make it integrate more efficiently with the other components in the Crystal Reports system -- Crystal Enterprise and Crystal Analysis -- to make the product more enterprise-oriented. This book shows newcomers to Crystal Reports how to use Crystal Reports to generate reports (which look good and make sense) from the data in databases. The book includes a jump-start chapter on creating a simple report and then moves on to basic and advanced reporting features: retrieving data from databases; sorting, grouping, and totaling result sets; formatting reports; using report templates; sorting groups; making correlations with cross-tab reports; working with formulas; combining reports with OLE; creating and updating OLAP reports; adding geographic detail with maps; and publishing reports. Since the software is becoming more enterprise-driven, this book includes a brand new part on Crystal Reports in the enterprise that covers the new time-saving, data-sharing features that Crystal Reports has when it is integrated with Crystal Enterprise and Crystal Analysis, such as: * Working with the Crystal Configuration Manager; * Working with the managed repository; * Creating a report using a business view; * Assigning security levels and access privileges; and * Analyzing OLAP data with Crystal Analysis.
