Print

Use these options to select the Discoverer worksheets to print.

• Entire Workbook

  Use this option to print the worksheet and graph for all worksheets in the workbook, including page item values selected in the individual worksheets' Page Setup options.

  Note:

  • The Page Setup and Preview buttons are not available when you select this option.

  • If any of the worksheets have active parameters, Discoverer displays the "Edit Parameter Values dialog" to prompt for parameter values.

  • You can specify Page Setup options for each worksheet before you print the workbook (for more information, see "How to change Page Setup options for a worksheet"). For example, you might want to print all page item combinations for a worksheet by first selecting the Print All Page Item Combinations on the "Page Setup dialog: Worksheet tab".

• Current Worksheet

  Use this option to print the currently displayed worksheet only. When you select this option, the Table and Graph check boxes are active, which enable you to print just the data, just the graph, or both data and graph.

  • Table/Crosstab

    Use this check box to print the current worksheet data as displayed. If the worksheet has page items, use the Page Items options to specify the page item values to print. Discoverer also prints the worksheet title area and text area, if specified.

  • Graph

    Use this check box to print the graph for the current worksheet (even if the graph is not currently displayed on-screen). Discoverer also prints the worksheet title area and text area, if specified.

    If you select this check box when the worksheet does not currently have a graph, Discoverer creates a default graph for you to print.

  • Page Items

    Use these options to specify the page item values you want to print. For example, if the Region in the page items area currently has East selected, you can print data for either the East region only, or all regions.

    Print Current Selections

    Use this option to print the data currently displayed on the worksheet. For example, if the Region in the page items area currently has East selected, select this option to print data for the East region.

    Print All Combinations

    Use this option to print data for all page items. For example, if the Region in the page items area currently has East selected, select this option to print data for all regions (for example, East, West, and Central).

    Automatically Resolve Issues that Occur During Printing

    Use this check box to specify whether you want to view Discoverer alerts during printing. For example, if you clear this check box Discoverer might display an alert for a long running query.

    When you select this check box, the Skip sheets with long running queries check box becomes active.

    Skip sheets with long running queries

    Use this check box to not print large or complex worksheets that exceed the long running query limit. For more information about how to manage queries that run during printing, see "Options dialog: Query Governor tab".
