The drilldown feature makes your reporting easier and clearer. Instead of producing unnecessary piles of reports you can now find your information with a few clicks. This makes reporting what it was meant to be: No looking for a needle in a haystack but the successful and easy evaluation of relevant data.
1. To build drilldown links the relations between the tables, familiar from the report container, are available. Multiple links can be created, the user then just selects which link will be triggered.
2. Users can choose the display mode of their drilldown result depending on personal preferences. The new report will either open in the same window, in a separate window or like in a browser in a separate tab.
00s ... List & Label has always been a state-of the-art reporting tool. We want to continue setting standards, so we have constantly added new features over the last years. So far we have made great progress and can now look back at a whole evolution history. Since version 11 we have developed a convenient way to print relational structures. Afterwards we tackled support for crosstabs, created an entirely programmable object model and we included a real data preview into the designer.
... 25s Drilldown support was one of the last blank areas which we can now cover. However, designing the navigation through the reports as easy as possible like in a browser, turned out to be a little challenge. In order to achieve this goal we expanded the preview control considerably. We also wanted to keep the support through the application as straightforward as possible and we believe that was best achieved by many data providers for .NET.
... 40s Including drilldown reporting into List & Label has made a long held wish come true, also from my personal point of view. This way the component remains true to itself as a groundbreaking reporting tool with cutting-edge features to simplify reporting extremely. On our stand at this years CeBIT in Hannover (Germany) I could already see that drilldown reporting is a feature that's just fun to use! It clears things up at lightning speed and makes sure that valuable information doesn't end up as graveyard data but can be evaluated quickly and efficiently. ... 60s
Drilldown Reporting generally refers to the navigation through multidimensional data, through different detail levels.
List & Label project manager Jochen Bartlau enjoyed himself not only demonstrating the new drilldown feature on this years CeBIT trade fair in Hannover (Germany) ... ;-)
