Denver, CO - APEX Web Media, a leading provider of in-depth video training solutions for business software titles, is now offering a Crystal Reports XI tutorial video course for beginners wanting to learn how to use the powerful database reporting tool. Available either on CD / DVD or online via subscription, this engaging video course is written and narrated by Kurt Dunlap, a long-time database systems expert and enterprise consultant.
This project-based course starts with the essentials, providing a thorough introduction to the program and its most essential components before helping users create a basic report. As the user gains confidence and skills, the projects increase in difficulty and provide access to a more sophisticated range of creative options and tools. The training assumes no prior knowledge of Crystal, SQL or database reporting, and it covers concepts necessary to using the application with practical hands-on examples.
Crystal Reports XI is a versatile tool, with a host of new and useful features. The program can import an impressive range of data types, from simple text files to full relational databases. And the list for export options is even longer; text, PDF, CSV, Excel, editable Word documents and Flash let professionals access and distribute their data like never before. Reports can contain dynamic graphs, tables and pie charts that give instant visual representations of current information, providing a crucial advantage when having to communicate up-to-date information with colleagues, clients and employers.
Each tutorial video lesson includes a real-time view of the program being used, so as users learn new features, tools and techniques, the application interface appears on screen just as it does on their own computer. The files used by the author are included on the course disk or as a download for those watching the tutorials online. These videos are designed to be informative and easy to follow, whether users are watching from the comfort of their own desk or on a laptop while on the go. The training is divided into subject-specific videos so that users can watch them in order or on an as-needed basis, and the playback can be paused, fast-forwarded, or rewound at any time. There is no other training system or guide that offers users more accessibility or control.
