Is there a way to control attributes iof controls when they are dragged onto a Band?

edited June 2006 in End User
I would like to set the default font size and font to user definable
values so when controls such as DBText are dragged onto a report band,
the user does not have to set them manually.

I would also like to control whether a label is automatically created
for a control when it is dragged onto a report band.

Are these two things possible? Any examples?

    Hi Larry,

    ReportBuilder uses the RBuilder.ini file to determine what the default
    settings are inside the designer. You will see in the [Format] section
    where all the font settings are defined. This file is located in the
    c:\Windows\... directory.

    Inside the data tree, you will see two tabs near the bottom. Click the
    "Layout" tab and select the "Fields" radio button to only show the fields
    when dragging text objects from the tree.
