Each part of the report (such as text, columns, computed fields, bands, graphs, even the report itself) has a set of properties appropriate to the part. The properties display in the Properties view.
You can use the Properties view to modify the parts of the report.
To use the Properties view to modify the parts
of the report:
Position the mouse over the part you want to modify.
Display the part’s pop-up menu and select Properties.
If it is not already displayed, the Properties view displays. The view displays the properties of the currently selected control(s), the band, or the report itself. The contents of the Properties view change as different controls are selected (made current).
For example, the Properties view for a column has tabbed property pages of information that you access by clicking the appropriate tab. If you want to choose an edit style for the column, you click the Edit tab. This brings the Edit page to the front of the Properties view.
