A Finest Partition report shows the result of this "re-segmenting" operation where two or more tables with data that is tied to a particular location are combined. The combination of the tables results in a new set of road sections where the boundary of any road section in the report is the boundary in one of the input tables. The report further shows the data attributes for each new section, with the data attributes being user-configurable.

| Note: When point locations are present in the data to be partitioned, the locations of these points are used in the finest partition operation but the points themselves are not part of the report (output). |
You display Open the Finest Partition Reports Configuration dialog box by right-clicking a Finest Partition Report title to display a shortcut menu and selecting Setup/Show Report. The dialog box allows you to select the tables with location data that are to be combined. It also allows you to select the columns that contain the data attributes that you want to show for the new road sections that result from combining the tables. This dialog box contains the following panes:
...
- Cancel: This command button discards any changes you made in the configuration dialog box and closes the dialog box.
- Create Copy: This command button creates a copy of the Finest Partition Report and closes the dialog box.
- Generate Report: This command button causes the system to combine the selected tables to create the new set of road sections. Once this is accomplished, the Show Report button becomes available so you may display the new road sections with the selected data.

| Note: While the system is generating the new set of road sections, to abort the process, click the Stop button and wait for the system to end the operation. Do not abort by clicking the Close icon in the upper right corner of the dialog box. Note: When modifying an existing report, the report itself is not modified by this command button. The new set of road sections is stored internally and only applied to the report when you click the Show Report button. This allows you to abort the modification of the report by clicking the Cancel button before clicking the Show Report button. |
