To save the report in HTML format:

1. Import the information you want saved.
2. Save the report in HTML format.
• To save a single report in HTML format:
  a. Select the report.
  b. Specify the report criteria.
  c. Click File> Save as HTML.
• To save multiple reports in HTML format:
  a. For each report you want to save in HTML format, select the report and specify the report criteria.
  b. Click File> Print or View Multiple Reports.
  c. Select the reports you want to save in HTML format.
  d. Click Save as HTML.
3. Review the saved reports.

To publish the reports if you installed the Web Console and Reporting on the same computer:

1. Run the report using Directory and Resource Reporting.
2. In an Internet browser, type http://<IISServerName>/DRA.
3. Click Reports.

To publish the reports if you installed the Web Console and Reporting on different computers:

• If you installed IIS on the reporting computer, the installation process automatically creates the DRAReports virtual directory. Add the following lines to the C:\InetPub\wwwroot\DRAWeb\WebConsole\ConfigInfo.asp file on the Web Console computer:
  
  Application("ReportURLs")= Array("http://ReportingServerName/DRAReports/default.html")
Application("ReportTitles")= Array("Default reports")
Application("ReportDesc")= Array("The default DRA report HTML.")

• If IIS is not installed on the reporting computer:
1. On the Web Console computer, create a DRA report directory and network share for the reports.
2. Create a virtual directory in IIS with the same name as the DRA report directory and point it to the DRA report directory.
3. Add the following lines to the C:\InetPub\wwwroot\DRAWeb\WebConsole\ConfigInfo.asp file: 

Application("ReportURLs")= Array("/<DRAReportDirectory>/default.html")
Application("ReportTitles")= Array("Default reports")
Application("ReportDesc")= Array("The default DRA report HTML.")
   
4. On the Reporting computer, open the reporting tool.
5. Change the default location of the HTML reports to the UNC path of the Web Console computer, "<\\<IISServerName>\<DRAReportDirectory>".

The information can also be obtained from Chapter 16 of the DRA User Guide and the Software Developer's Kit.
