Part III

Sharing results with others

This part covers Discoverer Plus Relational's printing, export, and sharing features. These features enable you to share Discoverer worksheet data with other Discoverer users electronically on the web, or using printed reports.

For example, your manager requests a very important detailed report in half an hour!

• Using Discoverer, you might generate a report, save it in HTML format, and e-mail it to your manager.

• Alternatively, you might create a worksheet that your manager can access instantly using Discoverer Viewer on the other side of the world.

Discoverer makes it easy to share data between Discoverer and other application formats. Having used Discoverer to identify and analyze information, you will often want to share your results with other users.

You can share your Discoverer results in a number of ways:

• by printing reports on paper or in PDF (Portable Document Format) format (for more information, see "Printing worksheets and graphs")

• by giving other Discoverer users access to your workbooks (for more information, see "Sharing workbooks")

• by exporting data in a number of different application formats (for more information, see "About exporting Discoverer data to other applications")

• by exporting data to Oracle Reports format (for more information, see "About exporting worksheets to Oracle Reports")

• by publishing information on your company's intranet using Oracle Portal (for more information, see "Publishing worksheets in OracleAS Portal", or Oracle Discoverer Business Intelligence Administration Guide or Oracle Portal documentation)
