Adding a Report Title

Scroll Prev Top Next More

The report title is placed in the Report Header section. A Report Header section is printed only at the top of the first page of the report.

 

To add the report title:

 

First, you must drag the Report Header section down so we can add the report title.

 

1.In the "Report Designer" window, place the cursor on the Report Header gray band.

 

The cursor is replaced with a double-headed arrow.

 

2.Click and drag the band down to the "1 inch" mark on the ruler to create enough work space to add text.
3.Select the Label button from the Standard Controls (first button from the left).

4.Position the cursor in the Report Header section at the far left side, then click the left mouse button.

 

The label will appear in the Report Header section with the text "Label1" as well as the Edit toolbar will become enabled with the text "Label1" inside it.

 

5.In the Edit toolbar replace the text with "Scheduled Flights by Date".

 

Now, we will edit the font for the text. From the Format toolbar, you will see the available fonts and sizes.

 

Format_TB

 

6.With the object still selected, choose "Verdana" if it is not already selected.
7.Select "18" from the size drop down box.
8.Select the "Center" option for justification.

 

Next, we will center the text so it appears directly in the center of the page.

 

9.Just as done with the Employee Phone List report, click the "Grow to Parent Width" button on the Size toolbar.
10.Then, click the "Center Horizontally in Band" button on the Align or Space toolbar.
11.Click the left mouse button to deselect the object.
