Course Description

This course is an entry level course that guides users through the process of designing basic reports using the PC Accounting set of credit Union data files. Former R & R for DOS users who have not spent any time with the new Windows version will benefit from this course, as well as those who have had limited exposure to the Report Writer Windows program. The WYSIWYG feel and the Report Wizards make this program easy to jump into and start to use in a short time span.
