Editing Existing Reports

One way to modify a report is to add a new item to the report definition. The other option is to manipulate the existing items.

To edit the report, from the Report menu, select the Edit Report Definition command to display the following report editing options:

  • Modify - changes report column's name, alignment, format, time period and calculation.
  • Cut - removes the selected item from the Report Definition table and places it on the Clipboard.
  • Copy - copies the selected report item to the Clipboard.
  • Paste - inserts the item currently placed on the Clipboard at the insertion point in the Report Definition table, and replaces any selection. This command is available only if you have cut or copied a report item.
  • Delete - permanently removes the item from the Report Definition table.
  • Insert - puts in the item currently placed on the Clipboard between the items at the insertion point in the Report Definition table. This command is available only if you have cut or copied a report item.

Tip: To get the edit menu in the Report Definition table, click your right mouse button inside the Report Definition table.

Note: By default, you report definition will always have Ticker and Company items. These items cannot be deleted.
