Namespace:  C1.C1Report
Assembly:  C1.C1Report.2 (in C1.C1Report.2.dll)

Syntax

C#
public Field Add(
	string name,
	string text,
	Rectangle rc
)
Visual Basic
Public Function Add ( _
	name As String, _
	text As String, _
	rc As Rectangle _
) As Field

Parameters

name
Type: System..::..String
Contains the name of the new field. You should use a consistent naming scheme for the fields and avoid using duplicate names for report fields and database fields. Using repeated names is legal but will cause VBScript expressions that use repeated field names to yield unexpected results.
text
Type: System..::..String
Contains the value for the new field's Text property. This value may be treated as a literal or as a VBScript expression, depending on the setting of the field's Calculated property. By default, Calculated is set to false and the text is rendered as-is.
rc
Type: System.Drawing..::..Rectangle
Defines the position of the field, in twips, with respect to its containing section.

Return Value

A reference to the newly added field.

Remarks

If you add a field to a section's Fields collection, the new field is automatically assigned to that section.

If you add a field to the control's Fields collection, the new field is not assigned to any sections. In this case, you must set the field's Section property or it will not be rendered in the report.
