Chapter 14 Plotting and Reporting Operations

The report function allows the user to specify the output device (screen,
printer or ascii file), the units of length and area, the object type for both
primary and secondary ordering of information, and a set number (0 indicates
all objects in the file).

report

    Creates a report based on user-defined parameters.

         report dev u area r1 r2 s [fname]

    Creates a report based on the supplied parameters.

    Options/arguments:

         dev       Printer/display device, where:
                   0 = screen
                   1 = printer
                   2 = ascii file (fname required)
         u         Length units code, where:
                   0 = pixels
                   1 = map inches
                   2 = ground feet
                   3 = ground miles
                   4 = map centimeters
                   5 = ground meters
                   6 = ground kilometers
         area      Area units code, where:
                   0 = pixels
                   1 = square inches (map)
                   2 = acres
                   3 = square miles
                   4 = square cm (map)
                   5 = square meters
                   6 = square kilometers
         r1        Primary order code, where:
                   0 = no sort
                   1 = object type
                   2 = record number
                   3 = serial number
                   4 = object length/perimeter
                   5 = area
                   6 = attribute
         r2        Secondary order code (see r1 table, above)
         s         Set number, where:
                   0 = all objects
                   1 - 24 = specific set number
         fname     Ascii output file name (required only when dev = 3)
    ___________________________________________________________________________
    Example(s):

    To generate a report to the screen which displays the length values in feet
    and the area values in acres, and in which the objects are primarily sorted
    by object type and secondarily sorted by record number, and for which the
    objects are selected from those in set 6, enter:
     
         report 0 2 2 1 2 6
