Modify Field Properties
Data fields are edited in the Reporter DataField Properties dialog. After data fields have been created, the distinction between the methods used to create them—Single Field or Fields from Table—goes away. Fields are edited individually. When you select the field you want to edit, the dialog that appears reflects the properties of that field and its data type.
To modify data field properties
1. Click Tools, DataField List.
The DataField List dialog appears.
2. Click Edit (the middle icon on the right side of the dialog).
A “No Details” version of the Reporter DataField Properties dialog appears.
3. Click All Details if you want to view more detail.
4. Make the desired edits.
5. Click Open API Code to view or edit the code for the field, if desired.
6. Click Save to save your edits.
