command on the REPORTS page.
The Reports Gallery displays the collection of sample reports (reduced images of actual reports) and lets the operator run one (at a time) by double-clicking the report's image on the screen. There is also provision for running multiple reports directly to your printer.
Data used to create the sample reports is taken from a test H2OS database in our lab. We did not set this database up for any specific reason, it just grew by throwing more tests at it. Expect that your data will produce different charts, and that it may take some time to get your data into optimal condition.
All reports include the report name, page headers, and variables used by the report, such as a time period covered by the report.
There are 3 ways to launch the report gallery:
1. The command on the REPORTS page.
2. The menu: REPORTS -> GALLERY
3. The =GALLERY command
Important: If the reports gallery screen appears askew, please adjust the number of rows and number across using the controls on the bottom left of the screen

From time to time, we distribute new reports via our website. We do not replace or change your existing installed reports, so if a new version of an old report is distributed, it's name will be different, usually by adding a number to the end of the name.
To obtain newly available reports, select the REPORTS option on the DOWNLOADS page and click the Run Selected Download.
