The Report Layout frame is the primary frame for editing RBF report specifications. You can use this frame to add, edit, or delete report components. From this frame, you also can call up other frames to add and delete report sections, and to specify report sorting order, runtime selection criteria, and report output options.

The preceding figure shows a Report Layout frame for a tabular report with a break header for the Name column. A layout frame for a report in another style looks different. The operations of the Report Layout frame function the same way regardless of the report's style.
