Tip

The first step is to plan the look, layout and functionality of the Report. In terms of the look and layout, most features of a basic word processor are available (e.g., tables, color, images, etc.). It's important to actually build a prototype report in a wordprosser. This is critical for moving from a generalized, verbal description of a report, to what the report will actually look like and do.
