Toad for Oracle
Toad Reports
Toad Reports lets you print out various preformatted reports. You access the window from the View | Reports menu item. Or you can click on the Reports button on the toolbar.
The reports list is displayed in the Reports panel in tree views that are divided by major categories. You select a report from the list.
The Report Description panel displays a description of the selected report.
The right panel contains a dropdown of Parameters that you need to set. The parameters that are displayed depend upon the type of report you select. The wildcard symbol "%" is a choice in each parameters list.
The Run button will run the report and invoke a Print Preview window where you can select your printer settings.
To run a report
1.
Select the report.
2.
Enter the parameters.
3.
Click the Run button. The Print Preview window displays the preformatted report and lets you set your printer options.
The Close button closes the window. The window does not close automatically when you close Toad.
Toad Reports runs as a separate program. If you have a long running report process you can close Toad and leave the reports program open. Toad Reports enhances Toad performance, because it can run in the background without tying up Toad.
