to Resize ObjectsNote: The special fields that can be added to a custom report in the Report Writer module are: Page Number, Print Date, Record Count, Report Name, Sub Heading, and User ID.
Click the title bar for the section in which to add the special field. Typically, the special fields are inserted into the Page Header section, except the Record Count field which is usually added to the Detail section, if desired.

Select the Insert menu, Special Fields, and then the desired special field: Page Number, Print Date, Record Count, Report Name, Sub Heading, or User ID.
The selected field will appear in the designated section.
Resize, format, move, and align the field as needed.
Tip: The following buttons (and corresponding options under the Format menu) are available to format a special field: Bold button, Italic button, Underline button, Font Settings button, Align button, Back Color button, Fore Color button, and Border button.
