Use Field List

To bind an existing report element to database data

1. Click the required field item in the Field List window, and then drag and drop it onto the element.

   The yellow database icon inside the control will then appear.

   

2. To add a new data-bound report element, drag the required field item from the Field List window onto a report band.

   This will create a Label bound to the selected data field.

   

3. A more flexible way to create data-bound elements is to right-click a Field List item, and then drag and drop it onto a report.

   This will display the context menu shown in the image below.

4. Choose the element type that will represent the data, and it will be automatically created and bound to the selected data field.
