[Solved] Report Header, Page Header How to add text

Postby pizzipie » Thu Dec 17, 2015 8:11 pm

How do you add your own text to a text field in Page or Report headers?

In the Properties Box of Page/Report Header I've tried to change the 'Name' to 'My Text' and it doesn't show up.

So far, I've been getting around this by editing these headers in the LibreOffice Writer program.

Add to the report a "Label field" which has the property "Label" that can be changed to the text you want to see.
