KugarData

Chapter 1. KugarData

The KugarData element defines a report's data source. The basic structure is a collection of rows and columns. This document does not define data types and their attributes at this time. The report template defines column data type information.

The document creator can apply an XSL style sheet to an existing document to convert it to this format. If XSL is used, the creator can apply custom macros using XSL for column calculations, sorting, etc..
