Testing a database using LO which included the Report Builder: I
opened a database and used the wizard to create a static report on a
table. Then I added new data. When the report was run, the new data did
not appear. I then deleted the static report. I created a dynamic report
on the same table also using the wizard. Again I added new data. This
time the new data appeared in the report. So a static report can be
generated using the wizard even when the Report Builder is already
installed.
