Adding fields to a report

This procedure describes how to access an existing report and add fields to update the report data.

To access and update a report’s content:

  1. Select the Get option to retrieve the report you want to edit.
  2. Select the Define option.
  3. Because you have already defined files in your report, the window displays the following list of options:

  4. Select the Fields option.
  5. The list of fields reappears; the fields already in the report are still marked.

  6. Highlight the field you want to add to the report.
  7. Press RETURN if you want the new field to be the last field in the report. Otherwise, type the number that corresponds to the position where you want the field.
  8. For example, if you want it to be the second field in the report, type a 2 next to it and press RETURN. (If you typed the first letter of the field to highlight it, you have to select it, then change its order number.) The number appears next to the field and the other selected fields renumber automatically.

  9. Add any other fields that you want to the report. When you are done, press GO.
  10. The fields appear in the Report Layout window.
