Work with Metadata Reports


Report is an effective tool for presenting metadata in readable format. You can manage data view according to your needs, changing size and appearance of each element in report.

 

Reports made of metadata

Source of report data is database objects' metadata.

Tools for working with such reports:

 

btnHTML_Report HTML Report wizard

This tool allows you to generate a detailed HTML report of the selected database objects. HTML Report is a bunch of *.html files.

 

btnPrintMetadata Print metadata

Use this tool to print metadata of an object. The report can be saved to an external file: for this purpose use the btnPreviewExport Export drop-down list when in preview mode.

 

Note: Print metadata can be used to backup database structure, as it saves object's DDL.
