The maximum size of a numeric field is 15 digits before the decimal and a maximum of 6 digits after the decimal (15.6). This number can be positive or negative.
You can run a string of reports without manual intervention by enabling the Automatically run another report after this one option in the Create Report program (see Subsequent Processing). However, if one of the reports in the string is set to output to XML, then the browser is invoked and once the browser is invoked, the option to automatically run another report is ignored. This means that if a report's output is set to XML, then selecting the option: Automatically run another report after this one in that report has no effect as the subsequent report will not be run.
