Copying controls in a report

You can copy controls within a report and to other reports. All properties of the controls are copied.

StepsTo copy a control in a report:

  1. Select the control.

  2. Select Edit>Copy from the menu bar.

    The control is copied to a private InfoMaker clipboard.

  3. Copy (paste) the control to the same report or to another one:

    • To copy the control within the same report, select Edit>Paste from the menu bar.

    • To copy the control to another report, open the desired report and paste the control.

    InfoMaker pastes the control at the same location as in the source report. If you are pasting into the same report, you should move the pasted control so it does not cover the original control. InfoMaker displays a message box if the control you are pasting is not valid in the destination report.
