Standard Report Viewer


NOTE: The use of the Report Viewer feature requires special installation and setup procedures. The "RTA Workstation Disk" or CD needs to be installed on each workstation that will be using this feature. Refer to the documentation provided with your "RTA Workstation Setup" disk or CD for specific installation and setup instructions.
All of the RTA reports allow the option of viewing the report to the screen. When the View/Print option is selected, a separate window containing the report output appears.
To go up or down a line, click the single arrow buttons along the side of the window. To go up or down a page, click the double arrow buttons. To go to the beginning or the end of the report, hold down the shift key and then click the single up or down arrow buttons. The up arrow, down arrow, Page Up, Page Down, Home, and End keys can also be used for movement.
Most RTA reports are formatted for 132 characters. You can display all 132 characters on the screen or fewer characters if you prefer a larger font size for viewing. Select your preferred setting from the Display option on the menu bar. When viewing reports in 80-character mode, use the scroll bar along the bottom of the screen to shift the report from side to side.Once a user sets their preferred font size and resizes the viewer window to their preference, the system will recall and use those settings the next time a report is viewed on-screen.
NOTE: If your Report Viewer window does not allow the ability to display all 132 characters, install the esffix2.fon font file on your computer. This file is located in your fleet folder and needs to be installed into the Windows font folder. Installing the "RTA Workstation Disk" also enables this feature. The Windows Display resolution must be set to 800 x 600 or higher.
