Using the Toolbox in report templates or layouts
You can use the Toolbox in the Report and Layout Designers to create or modify fields and objects in report templates and layouts.
In the Layout Designer, tools are found in two groups in the Toolbox: Field and Drawing. The Field tools are: Field, Memo Field, Picture Field, YesNo Field, Record Manager, and Access. The Drawing tools are: Text, Image, Rectangle, and Ellipse. You can use the tools to add fields and objects to the layout.
In the Report Designer, the Toolbox contains the following tools: Field, Text, Rectangle, Picture, Picture Field, System Field, and Subreport. You can use the tools to add fields and objects to a report template.
In both designers, the Toolbox displays by default, but you can hide it if you do not want it to display. For information about showing or hiding the Toolbox, see Showing and hiding the Toolbox.
