Before You Get Started
Before you start Progress Report Builder, consider the following issues:
- To have full Report Builder functionality, you must first install an MS-Windows printer driver (the physical printer does not have to be installed). If you do not have a printer driver installed, Report Builder will not have access to the font information that it requires to generate reports.
- Report Builder cannot create file system directories. Thus, if you want to store your reports in a location other than where you installed Report Builder, you must first create the directory.
- If you specify black as your MS-Windows highlight color, you will have difficulty viewing selected options in some of the Report Builder dialog boxes. To avoid this problem, choose another highlight color.
- If you want to access the same Progress database with Report Builder simultaneously with any other Progress tool, such as the Data Dictionary, you must start a database server on that database. See the Progress Database Administration Guide and Reference for information about starting a Progress database server.
- If you want to access a local database, you must have a version of Progress that allows you to connect to a local database.
