Creating a listing of template objects from the database

Before you get started ensure you have defined the global attributes file path in the File Locations preferences dialog.

The listing of objects is created when you create a report based on this template in your product. The rule of the row in question has an effect on the final output of the listing.

To create a listing of objects from the product database:

  1. Insert a value field inside a row component.
  2. Select and double-click to open the Value Field Properties dialog box.
  3. Create a value field formula using the GetValue attribute function.
  4. Check the syntax of the formula and click OK.
  5. Click OK to close the dialog. The changes to the formula are saved.
