Open Sample Report Templates
This topic introduces the two sets of sample reports Designer provides and how you can open them.
There are many sample reports in Designer. You can open any of them to learn how to create them. Designer saves these sample reports in two directories. If you want to see how a particular component works such as a Checkbox web control or a particular chart type such as Scatter chart, open the catalog in <install_root>\Demo\Reports\SampleComponents
. If you want examples of complete reports similar to what you provide to your end users, open the catalog in <install_root>\Demo\Reports\SampleReports
.
