Adding a Summary to Your Custom Report

Available with STN Express, Version 8.4 and higher

When you create a custom report, you can include a summary with up to six fields for each answer. This summary serves as a table of contents to help expedite review of information in the report.  Hyperlinks in the left-hand column make it easy to move between the summary and the complete record.
