Tree view explorer:

For a short menu to be opened make right click on a node. One report can be copied using copy/paste option from the short menu.

For editing make a double click on the report. Then use right text box to write the report description.

 

For using reports the database connections are needed.

 

The "Connections" button opens the database connections window.

 

Create the connection string that should link with the database on your server. An ODBC connection string is required.

Press "Test connection" to verify the connection string.

Press "Create XML" to create a metadata XML file of the database to be used later by the reports designer graphic interface.
