Whatever you do don’t go with @Randy to the after-parties. Its a Kinetic fan-club and no one likes WinForms Classic at those parties. ---

I’ve never been to an Insights, so not sure if it has been covered before (or often enough)… I think a good course would be on how the reporting systems work. All to often do people see a table name in the RDD or RDD and assume it is the actual DB table, when it is really a temp table. Some points to cover: - What the RDD does, and how its output is temporary - What the difference is between DB tables and Report tables (OrderHed vs OrderHed\__GUID_) - What RDLs are - What Report Styles are - Why you should never press the Synch Dataset button - How the RDLs use the data from an RDD’s output - What the archive period does for the temp data - Restress how important it is to never press the Synch Dataset button I’d be happy to present this. I only ask for admission to Insights, and access to a syestem running Kinetic. I’ll pay my own transportation and lodging. And I’ve been “owed” enough drinks to keep me happy while I’m there. 😉 ---
