REPORT TOOL



  Back

DESCRIPTION:


The report tool creates reports using data entered in the journal during a specified date range.  Use the "Category" menu to specify meals, weight training workouts, cardiovascular workouts, measurements, medical, general or all data.  

Reports can be generated in plain text or HTML.  They can be viewed on the screen, printed or saved to a file.  This allows data to be exported to other applications or displayed on a Web site.  In most cases, the printout will look exactly like it does in the report preview window.

Use the plus and minus buttons to view different pages.  To print a report, select "Print..." from the main "File" menu.  Whenever possible, information is compressed to maximize the data printed on each page.  It is also arranged to keep each section on the same page (to prevent one section from overlapping two pages).

Pages are printed on the default printer using a one inch margin on all sides.  Anytime an option is changed, the report displayed in the preview window will automatically update.  Each report page can also be copied and pasted into other applications.  Simply select the text you want with the mouse, then use Command-c to copy them.
