As the cursor is moved over the report, an object frame appears along with the Arrow cursor.
3.
Place the fields to the right of the Customer Name field.
Both fields appear in the Details section of the report in the same order in which they are listed in
the Field Explorer dialog box.
2.3.2.6 Selecting fields
When a field is selected, the object frame appears with a handle (box) on its right, left, top, and bottom
edge. These handles indicate that the field is selected, and therefore active. To do anything with a field
(change the font, move it, and so on), you first have to select it:
• Position the cursor inside the object frame and click once. The handles appear, indicating the object
is selected.
• Move the cursor away from the object frame and click in an empty part of the window. The handles
disappear.
That's all it takes to select and deselect objects.
2.3.2.7 Resizing fields
To resize the field, follow these steps:
1.
Click the Customer Name field in the Details section to select it.
2.
Press the Ctrl key and click the field heading to select both objects.
3.
Move the cursor over the resizing handle on the right edge of the fields until the cursor turns into a
Resizing cursor.
4.
Resize the fields to the right until they are approximately two inches in length.
