Description
|
| Output format |
Off |
A set of checkboxes allows you to select one or more output
formats. The current version of the DTM Schema Reporter supports
RTF (Microsoft Word compatible), HTML (three options - use combo
box to select), XML, PDF, CHM (Windows HTML Help), MS Excel and
plain text target formats. You can create report with one or more
formats at once. |
| HTML Document type |

It defines html output type: single document, frameset or one
document per database object. |
| Save report to |
Empty |
These edit boxes allow you to specify one or more output file
name. |
| Report title |
See settings |
The program uses this string as report title. |
| Open created report with... |
Off |
The program automatically opens the results with an application
associated with the selected report type (MS Word, Internet
Explorer, Notepad etc.) after execution. |
| Format for automatic open |
N/A |
The program can open only one output file automatically. This
drop-down menu allows the user to select format that will be
opened. |
| Include summary information |
On |
The option switches on or off report header that includes
general information like connection properties, report date,
product version, etc. |
| Table of Content |
On |
Include or no table of content for DOC/RTF and HTML
output. |
You must specify the file name to save the newly created report
to for at least one format. Use "Browse" buttons to select
destination file. Warning: when you change the target report format
(RTF, HTML, XML, CHM, PDF, Excel*, or plain text), be
sure that the file extension complies with the report type.
Otherwise, you will have a problem when opening that file with the
associated application. In most cases you can use $DATE$ and $TIME$
macros in the file name to make reporting output more flexible.
* - installed Microsoft Word is required.
The program saves the major settings and options even if you
don't use project files.
