In the Webinar at the end of the presentation there was a fine thing - called expert mode or so. There were all things like selecttion, fields, grouping and so on arranged in tab pages. You can select something and at the bottom you can see the data changing. I can't find this now. What I am missing? I this not in this Alpha or I am overlooking something?

Regards,
Peter

Hi Peter, well observed. We did plan to have a "New Report Expert" in this Alpha I. It is another way of starting to make a new report in two ways: (1) it's rather "grid-based" than "paper-based" and (2) it's data-based rather than meta-data based. It was ready to go, everything looked good, but during extensive testing we hit a snag and had to pull it out. It'll be in a next version.

I see! I'm sure this is a really pretty way for endusers (not only ;-)) to start with reports.
