what is field set? what is the query calculation and layout calculation?..

Answer / gnani

Field set is same as block but with caption.

Using Layout calculation we can add runtime information to
report like rownum,page no.,date,time...
Using Query calculation we can perform scrubbing.
i.e u can calculate query items with arithmetic operations.
eg; [unit price]*[quantity],
