When the report prints, the options you selected are listed at the top left of the report so at a later time you know what you are looking at. This mixing and matching of options gives the reports great flexibility and power. Most reports have limiting options that are applicable for the particular report. As other reports are discussed we will only refer to those options that require some explanation.

Another useful feature common to all reports is the Print and Print Preview options. Click on the Print button to generate a hard copy (on paper) of the report. Click on the Print Preview button to view the report on the screen. The screen display appears exactly as the paper report. Depending on your screen resolution, you might have to use the scroll bars to see the entire page since it takes up more than most screens can display. You can click with the mouse anywhere on the page and switch between a close-up view and a full page view. Navigation buttons are provided to flip between the pages of the report. While in the Print Preview mode, you have the to print a hard copy. Just click on the Print button that appears with the report. You will then be presented with a standard Windows print screen that gives you such options as number of copies to print and a range of pages to print. These are not options when doing a direct hard copy print-out.
