Toolbar and Shortcut Menu

The toolbar provides buttons with tool tips and hot-key combinations. You can right-click any item in the tree view to bring up a shortcut menu.

The toolbar and the shortcut menu offer these functions:

• Insert to Report
  Use this option to add a field to the report. You can insert more than one field at a time by selecting multiple fields, right-clicking, and choosing Insert to Report.

  Alternatively, to insert a field, you can drag and drop it in the Design or Preview tabs.

• Browse Data
  Use this option to browse data for a database field or formula field.

  When you right-click a database field, the shortcut menu has Insert to Report and Browse Data enabled.

• New
  Use this option to create a formula field, SQL expression field, parameter field or running total field.
• Edit
  Use this option to modify an existing formula field, SQL expression field, parameter field or running total field.
• Rename
  Use this option to modify the name of an existing formula field, SQL expression field, parameter field or running total field.
• Delete
  Use this option to remove a formula field, SQL expression field, parameter field or running total field. You can also select multiple fields, right-click, and choose Delete to remove them all at once.
• Move Parameter Up (or Down)
  Use this option to change the order of parameter fields.

  When you right-click a parameter field, all the functions except Browse Data are enabled.

Group Name Fields

You can insert an existing Group Name field shown in the Field Explorer by right-clicking it and selecting Insert. Unlike a formula field, parameter field or running total field, however, you cannot create a Group Name field through the Field Explorer. (A Group Name field is created when you insert a group.)
