Cross-Tab
The Cross-Tab Report Creation Wizard guides you through the creation of
a report in which your data is displayed as a cross-tab object. Two special
screens (Cross-Tab and Grid Style) help you create and format the cross-tab
itself.
Mailing Label
The Mailing Labels Report Creation Wizard lets you create a report that is
formatted to print on any size mailing label. You can use the Label screen
to select a commercial label type, or you can define your own layout of rows
and columns for any multi-column style report.
OLAP
The OLAP Report Creation Wizard lets you create a report in which your
OLAP data is displayed as a grid object. Although similar to the Cross-Tab
Report Creation Wizard in several ways, the OLAP Report Creation Wizard
appears to be different due to the requirements of working with OLAP data
sources. You first specify the location of your OLAP data, and then you
choose the dimensions you want to include in the grid. Next you filter the
report data and choose the style of the grid object, which you can also
customize. Finally, you can define labels for your grid and insert a chart, if
you wish.
