4.

You can rename the copy. The default name for the copy is the
original name with the ending "_n", where n is a consecutive
number. For example, the first copy of the report Total will be
named Total_1.

To copy a report from one setup to another, proceed as follows:

1.

Open the report for editing.

2.

From the Utility menu, choose Copy.

3.

Open the Setup view.

4.

In the Setup view, open another setup or create a new one.

5.

Open the same view where the copy was made in.

6.

From the Utility menu, choose Paste.

7.

As the latter setup does not necessarily contain the same variables,
all references to the variables will be lost and you have to reconnect
them. This procedure is analogous to defining the input variables
for a new report.

The variables are replaced with tags. The variable tags are
constructed similarly to predetermined reports, that is, a variable
name is enclosed in square brackets, for example, [TA1m_Avg].
The reports also keep their original attributes, such as the column
width, unless manually changed.

NOTE

When making a configuration copy inside the setup, do not close the
configuration view between the Copy and Paste commands. If you
close the view, you will disconnect all variable references as explained
below.

NOTE

If you change a preformatted report copied from a template by typing
text or by changing the attributes of a variable cell, the message
displayed in

Figure 57 on page 117

appears. It means that Lizard will

no longer try to preserve the original attributes for the report. For
example, if you replace a tagged cell content with a variable after
getting this message, the default variable-dependent field width and
number of decimals will be used instead of those that came with the
report.
