Headers and Footers tab settings

Adding headers and footers lets you insert text or images to help define certain elements in a report. The Headers and Footers tab is divided into a Headers area and a Footers area. Each area is divided into three sections: Left section, Center section, and Right section. Use the sections to align header information to the left, center, or right side of the header or footer.

This topic contains the following procedures:

  • Add header and footer text

  • Delete header and footer text

  • Modify header and footer text

  • Format header and footer text

  • Insert an image into a header or footer

  • Modify a header or footer image

  • Change the report starting page number

Note

Management Reporter accesses the regional settings of your Windows Operating System for the period description information. For example, if you specify the Autotext code of @DateLong, and the day of the week appears in your report headers but you do not want day of the week, you must change the regional settings for your machine’s operating system and remove dddd (day of the week) from the Long Date definition. For more information about the regional settings, see your operating system documentation. For information about Autotext options, see Autotext descriptions.
