Generating a Report

	This task explains how to generate a report listing values of selected properties. Before you do this, you need to define the report format. Examples from the `Piping Design` workbench are used here. Substitute the appropriate resource or directory when working in another workbench.
	1.	Click `Tools - Report - Generate`. The `Generate a Report` dialog box displays.
	2.	Click the `Open` button and select the report format you want to use (in this case `Piping Parts List.xml`).
		If you had defined a query in your report format, check `Objects From Predefined Query`.
		If you select one or more objects in the document, check the option `Currently Selected Objects`.
		Check `All Objects in Document` if you want a report on all objects in your document.
	3.	Click `OK` and the report is generated. It shows values for all properties defined in your report format for all objects in the document that have them. Where an object does not have a property, the report displays asterisks.
	4.	Click `Insert in Doc` if you want to display these values in your document. To generate the report from a schematic and insert it in a schematic, click on the `Insert in Doc` button and click anywhere in your drawing. To generate the report from a 3-D document and insert it in a drafting document, click the `Insert in Doc` button and select the sheet or view in the specifications tree. (Do not select a point in the sheet). When the `XY Coord` dialog box displays, enter the location where you want to insert the report. The data is placed at the location. It can be moved to another location by click and drag.
	5.	Click `Save As` to save the report. Specify a file name and location, and select a type such as HTML.
	NOTE: If you have several instances of the same CATPart in your document, and the query finds geometrical data that is embedded in the reference CATPart (e.g. user parameters, geometric sets), the data is reported only once in the report.
