Hi Zoltan

I think this is a case where the term doesn't carry over from the one
tool to the other.

In the case of the Report Wizard you can save the results into the ODB
wrapper and then when it's opened next you need to have designated
whether it will be treated as a template or document. If template the
report definition saved in the hidden fields is re-run, in the case of
the document (static report) it is simply opened.

In the case of the Report Designer an actual report definition, as a
unique type, is introduced. So after running a report definition you
create the equivalent of the Wizard's static report simply by saving the
ODT or ODS file generated. When you execute a save function in the
Designer interface you are always saving only the definition back into
the ODB wrapper.

I hope that helps,
