## Open As dialog

This dialog appears when you open a self-contained report set from the Open Report Set dialog (a self-contained report set is a binary report set file, which has a .clx suffix and contains not only the report set's layout but also the catalog with its own resources). It helps you to specify the way in which the self-contained report set will be opened. See the dialog.

The following are details about options in the dialog:

Open a self-contained report set at current catalog

Specifies to open the selected self-contained report set in the current catalog and make it work under the current catalog.

JReport Designer will compare the resources in the catalog of the self-contained report set with the current catalog according to the checking level (whether the Check all data match is selected). If conflicts exist between the two catalogs, the report set cannot be opened.

Open a self-contained report set directly

Specifies to open the selected self-contained report set directly to make it work under a new catalog.

Open a self-contained report set at other catalog

Specifies to open the selected self-contained report set at another catalog and make it work under that catalog.

If this option is checked, you will be prompted to open an existing catalog for the self-contained report set. JReport Designer will then compare the resources in the catalog of the self-contained report set with the newly selected catalog according to the checking level (whether the Check all data match is selected). If conflicts exist between the two catalogs, the report set cannot be opened.

Check all data match

This check box is enabled when Open a self-contained report set at current report or Open a self-contained report set at other catalog is checked. It is used to specify the checking level between two catalogs.

- If checked, all the differences between the two catalogs will be checked by JReport Designer.
- If unchecked, only the differences that can cause the report engine to fail when running the report set will be checked by JReport Designer.

OK

Opens the report set in the specified way and closes the dialog.

Cancel

Closes the dialog, leaving any changes unsaved.
