Go ahead and create a new project (or use an existing if you wish) and make sure you have an analysis with a database you can use available. Then create a query with whatever fields you like. In this tutorial we’re going to keep it simple and select one field labeled “Fullname” out of the query.
Next create a New report and select “Blank” from the create report wizard.
Now we want to ensure that the report is configured so that the data for the report comes “From programming”. To do this right click on the report and choose “Report Options”. Now select the “Data” tab and then make sure it says “From programming”.
If by chance you start utilizing this method to make reports and see that a report is not printing all the records you think it should, then this is the first place to investigate.... trust me.
Alright, we’re well on our way. Now let’s get into the “Report Code” section and start doing some hard core coding . . . Ok, it won’t be hard core, but it will be programming!
