Using Excel Report Templates

By default, this sheet is hidden. To view it, right-click on the name of the
active sheet and select Unhide, then select Table and click OK.

Note: To create a new template, you must start from an existing template.

Otherwise the Table sheet will not be created and the template will not
work, as FastReporter 2 will not be able to generate the dataset needed.

Note: Since the Table sheet is be generated using macro, you must enable

macros to modify it.

The Report sheet is where you can define how you want the output (the
report) to look like. The report sheet will contain different FieldName tags.

Field Name tags are the combination of TableName and ColumnName.
(TableName.ColumnName), for example, Identification.FiberID. You
should use the field names from the Universal sheet. For more information,
see Using the Universal Sheet on page 307.
