Report Tables (Overview)

The report (or on-screen report, to distinguish it from the Printer Layout that defines the printout) includes several graphics and tables for displaying all relevant sample data on the screen. The report is saved in the Report Definition File (RDF), together with the printer layout.

To open the report tables, either select Show Report on the View menu or click the following icon: . The report is usually displayed in the Integration window. However, you can also have the report tables displayed in the QNT Editor to directly check the effects of the changes made in the QNT Method. (For more information about the editor, refer to Data Representation and Reprocessing  The QNT Editor.)

You can add, edit, or extend the individual report tables as required. Chromeleon provides the following tables when you select Insert Report on the Table menu:
