    The report definition is saved as an .rtm file. Use the Template property of
    the TppReport component to configure where/how it is saved, either as ASCII
    text or in a binary format. If you have DADE queries in the report, these
    can be saved inside the rtm as well. Also, the DADE queries together can be
    saved in a .dtm file which is the data definition of a report. The dtm can
    be imported into another report definition. In the template, there is also
    space where you can provide custom information along with the report
    definition. See the help file on report templates. There are also Tech-Tip
    articles on using templates on our TechTips newsgroup in the Templates
    thread.
