Add a new report element
Previous  Top  Next


Buttons for adding report elements to the report can be found on the left side of the designer window:

_bm12 Reportband
_bm13 Childband
_bm14 Subdetailband
_bm15 Groupband
_bm16 Label
_bm17 Memo
_bm18 Image/Bitmap
_bm19 Shape
_bm20 Systemfield
_bm21 Datafield
_bm22 Image from data field
_bm23 Expression field


The availability of the following report elements depends on the used platform (16 or 32 bit) and on the application in which the report designer is used:

_bm24 Richtext field   _bm25 Richtext from data field

To add an element to the report you must click its button and then click on the report where you want the element to be inserted. Of course you can still move a report element to another position later.
When adding new report bands it doesn't matter where you click on the report, because the position of each band is determined by its band type (page header, title band, ...) automatically.
