Snapshot

A snapshot, or a picture, may be taken of report data at multiple levels. This feature is useful when drilling to different levels of a report; you can capture a Snapshot at each or all applicable levels.

• Turn on the Drilling mode.

To take a snapshot:

4. A new tab containing the data snapshot will be created at the bottom of the report.
   The snapshot tabs, and any tab for that matter, can be renamed.
