what is a report?

plz explain clearly

[Former Member]

Reports which are properly formatted (header, footer, page numbers etc.,) with the help of one or more external events like top-of-page,end-of-page etc., are called as CLASSICAL REPORTS.

Standard list.

Output of Report program is nothing but Standard list. It consists of one continuous page of 60,000 lines.

Interactive report.

For that purpose, a new feature called ‘Interactive report’ is introduced.

Here the user can interact with the list by creating his own ‘Menus’, ‘Application Toolbar’ etc., for further navigation.
