User`s guide
Like the original areas, each of these newly added areas can contain one or more sections. By default,
they each contain a single section.
4.3.1.2 Identifying and working with areas and sections
By default, each area contains only a single section. The name for that section appears directly to the
left of the section. If you have multiple sections in an area, the sections are designated as a, b, c, and
so forth.
Note:
• Initials, such as RH, PH, D, PF, RF, and so on, are used to identify each section if you have selected
the Short Section Names check box in the Design View area of the Options dialog box.
• If you right-click the shaded area containing a section name, a shortcut menu appears with
section-specific options.
If you have selected the Show Rulers options on the Layout tab of the Options dialog box, the program
displays a section ruler immediately to the left of each section. The section ruler is used to add, remove,
and move guidelines, and to provide a visual reference when you are placing objects. See Designing
with guidelines .
Whenever a new section is added, the program creates a ruler for that section. See Using multiple
sections in reports .
