Report Writer - Insert Menu

The Insert menu in the Report Writer contains options that let you insert rows, columns, images, and graphs into your reports.

Cell

This option opens the Insert Options screen, which gives you the options of either moving the current cell to the right or down or inserting a new row or column.

Rows

This option adds a row to the grid. If a row or cell contains text or you select it, then a new row appears above that row or cell. If you select multiple rows or cells, then selecting this option adds the same number of new rows to match the number of selected rows or cells.

Columns

This option adds a column to the grid. If a column or cell contains text or you select it, then a new column appears to the left of that column or cell. If you select multiple columns or cells, then selecting this option adds the same number of new columns to match the number of selected columns or cells.

Page Break/Remove Page Break

This option inserts page breaks immediately before and to the left of the cell that you select in the grid. Page breaks show up in the grid as vertical and horizontal dashed lines.

After inserting page breaks, you can remove them. Select a cell just below the dashed line, and then select Insert > Remove Page Break.

Data

This option has three suboptions, including Quick Data Function, Formula Assistant, and Quick Fill Matrix. These tools help you assign data to cells, set up valid Report Writer formulas, and create a complete report quickly.

Picture

This option lets you insert an image into a single cell or multiple cells in a report. Use this option if you want to include your institution's logo at the top of your reports.

Graph

This option lets you create a graph and insert it into the report. You can also use the Insert a Graph speed button for this purpose.
