Other Tab, Report Properties Dialog Box (Report Builder)

Makes it possible for you to add comments, user data, and code elements that you can use at report run time for reports in the Report Designer or Label Designer.

The Report Properties dialog box appears when you click Properties on the Report menu or on the shortcut menu of a report.

  • Edit comment
    Opens the Comment dialog box. This enables you to add or edit comments for the report.

    Note

    The system stores the comments in the COMMENTS memo field of the report structure table. By default, the report engine does not use them. However, the ReportListener subclasses can use the COMMENTS field.

  • Edit user data
    Opens the User data dialog box. This enables you to add or edit user-defined data for the report.

    Note

    User data is not visible and cannot be changed when you modify a report layout in protected mode.

    Note

    The system stores the user data in the USER memo field of the report structure table. By default, the report engine does not use them. However, the ReportListener subclasses can use the USER field.

  • Edit settings
    Opens a Run-time extensions dialog box. This enables you to add or edit arbitrary code resources to the report control. Comments in the run-time extensions code block explain how to use run-time extensions.
