Labels

  1. To create a label for an item, select the item on the report design and from the Insert menu, select Label. The Insert Label dialog is displayed.
  2. Specify this information:
    Source Field
    Select the required field from the drop down list.
    Note: If you highlight the data field first and then open the Insert Label dialog, the Source Field is populated with the data field name to use as the field's label.
    Label Type
    Each field has a label, a short label, and a long label associated with it. The short label is a shorter version and is generally used in page headers. Select which label is to be inserted.
    Add Colon
    Select this check box to show a colon after the label on the report. This option is not available for short or long labels.
    Include Parent Label
    Select this check box to include a label for the parent of the selected field, if the field is an embedded field.
    Separator
    If the selected item is a parent and a numeric value, and this field is enabled, enter a character to be used as a separator.
    Locale
    From the drop-down list, select the locale for the label.
  3. Click OK. Drag and drop the label onto the report design where you want it to appear.
