To copy and paste a data field

Reports and forms > Customizing forms > To copy and paste a data field

The customize window for the form you wish to customize should be displayed (To find the Customize window).

  1. Click the data field once to select it.
  2. Choose Copy from the Edit menu.
  3. If you want to paste the data field onto another form, display that form in the Customize window.

Note: Pasting data fields onto other forms

You can copy a data field and paste it onto another form, but only if the form onto which you're pasting is the same type of form as the form from which you copied the field. For example, you can copy a data field from a plain-paper item sale to a customized item sale, but you can't copy a data field from an sale form to a statement form.

  1. Choose Paste from the Edit menu. A copy of the data field will appear in the window.
