The GXR .GXR file extension is a report file type associated with the development environment GeneXus, which is mainly used to develop high complexity applications in distributed systems.
A GXR report is a self-contained document which allows you to store and present generated contents. It preserves reports layout, such as fonts, images, and graphics requested on the developer’s instructions. GXR files are divided into three main sections: the report header, the report body, and the report footer.
Header Section
The report header section contains general information about the report settings like the author of the report, generation date, page numbering, etc. It has a specific size and location set on it to be able to fit in different output media when the report is printed.
Body Section
The body section works as in an HTML page - a flow of information that is added in syntax-aware order. This includes text, tables, graphs, charts, and variables. The commonly used procedure for defining where certain elements should be placed is writing instructions in GeneXus code.
Footer Section
The footer section does not have specific elements by default. Moreover, this section is entirely customizable to whatever the developer wants it to be. Certain components can be added as per requested such as page numbers or grand totals.
Similar File Extensions include TemplateParts, .RGZ, .KSF, DistCache, and KBJ
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .GXR) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .GXR extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .GXR file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .GXR extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .GXR extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .GXR file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .GXR file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .GXR file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .GXR file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .GXR file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
