About this course

This course is intended for people who need output from databases. Some database programmes have limited reporting tools, or tools that are not accessible or difficult to use. Crystal Reports addresses this problem.
Before taking this course, delegates should be familiar with basic computer functions, such as creating and navigating folders, opening programmes, manipulating windows, copying & pasting objects, formatting text, and saving files in a Microsoft Windows environment.
They should also be familiar with basic database concepts, as taught in our Microsoft Access Introduction course.
Programming or SQL experience would be very helpful but is not necessary for the course.
