R:BASE used the column comments in the Employee table for the column headings on the report. The column heading text can be modified to improve the display of the report, by removing the repetitive "Employee" text, and adding capital letters for the all of the words.
To edit the column heading text:
| 1. | In the "Report Designer" window, click on the "Employee first name" text object in the Page Header section. |
Handlebars appear on the selected object and the "Edit" toolbar displays Employee first name. The status bar will display that you selected a "Label" object.
| 2. | Change the text to "First Name" in the Edit toolbar. |
| 3. | Repeat this procedure for the rest of the column headings, using the following text: |
Column Names |
Text |
Employee last name |
Last Name |
Employee area code |
Area Code |
Employee phone number |
Phone Number |
| 4. | Choose File: Save to save changes to the report. |
