Creating a Reset button for the Report

This section will not just be used to create a button.  A process will also be created to reset the various page items.  The detailed explanation on processes is contained in the chapter on Page Processing.

The tasks in this section require two steps

• Create the Reset button

• Create a Reset Report Search process

To create the reset button, follow the abbreviated steps below:

1.       On the Page Definition page click on the  icon in the Buttons section.

2.       On the Button Region page click Next.

3.       Button Position: Create a button in a region position and click Next.

4.       On the Button Attributes page:

• Button Name: RESET

• Label: Reset

• Default for the rest and click Next.

5.       Image Attributes page: Click Next.

6.       On the Create Button page:

• Position: Region Template Position #CLOSE#

The [Close] link below the Position select list can be used to help make this faster.

• Default the rest and click Next.

7.       On the Branching page:

• Branch to Page: &APP_PAGE_ID. Be sure to remember the  ending period.

• Click Create Button.

At this point, the program returns to the Page Definition page, and it is time to create the processes.
