Traditional documentation
is available in the form of bookmarked PDF files.  In the Technical Documentation section of the Support site, the Argos Getting Started Guide download is the starting point for Designers.  This Getting Started Guide (suggest you Right-Click on the link and Save Target as)  is a 99 page document which covers DataBlock creation in detail from simple to complex including query, QuickView, simple Report, complex Report, and output to Excel.  This is great for Power Users wanting traditional documentation.

The Argos COOP DataBlock Repository is available to you from our Argos Login.  (Your Argos COOP password will be your Banner Username + Banner ID, e.g., ballen9012212.)

1. Band Editor (Formatted Reports)
