SUMMARY
The Catalog Manager contains an AutoReport tool that creates and runs a report for the active table or query using the default settings of the Report Wizard. This tool is disabled if no table or query is in use.

MORE INFORMATION
To run the AutoReport tool, choose the AutoReport button (above the Program tab) in Catalog Manager, or choose AutoReport from the Tools menu.

Choosing the AutoReport tool brings the Report tab to the front. After the report is generated and compiled, it runs.

Default Report Wizard Settings
Setting          Default value --

Style            Executive. Selected Fields  As many as will fit on the report. Layout           Horizontal. Sort Order       None. Report Name      First six characters of the table name, followed by an underscore (_), then the number "1". (If                    that table name already exists, the next                     available number is used). For example, if the table name is "CUSTOMER," the first report created is "CUSTOM_1." The next report created is                    "CUSTOM_2," and so forth. Title            Table name. The title appears at the top of the report. NOTE: In FoxPro for Windows, reports created with the AutoReport tool can later be modified using either the Report Wizard or the Report Writer tool. In FoxPro for MS-DOS, they can only be modified using the Report Writer tool.
