Setting a default type of data provider for new documents
Do you always use the same type of data provider when you create new
documents? If so, you can set an option so that the type of data provider you
always use will be preselected in the New Report Wizard. In other words, you
will not have to select the type of data provider you want every time you create
a document.
Tip: If you always use queries on universes, you can also select the default
universe to use.
To set a default type of data provider:
1. Select the Options command on the Tools menu.
In the Options dialog box that appears, click the New Document tab.
2. Click Invoke the New Report Wizard with the following settings:
3. In the Data Access group box, select the type of data provider you want to use.
• The Use a Default Universe option lets you select the universe you want.
• Use a Different Data Provider lets you select a data provider type from the
drop-down list.
4. Click OK to close the dialog box.
