Updating Fields
Select View > Update Fields to manually update fields. All fields, not just those currently
selected, are updated within the project. This function can be used to update the date, time or
database fields.
Inserting an Image from a Database
Select Database > Insert Image to insert an image from the active database onto the Master
label. The name of the graphics file and, if necessary, the path are transferred from the selected
field of the open database.
Since every record can contain a different graphics file, you can create similarly formatted
labels with different graphics.
1. Select Database > Insert Image. The
Insert Image from Database dialog box
appears. A list of the field names of a record
of the currently open database is displayed.
2. Select the field that contains the graphics
specifications.
• The name of the graphics file complete with
its file extension must be in the appropriate
field of the record.
• The details of the path can either be in the
record, which is useful if the pictures are
located in different directories, or the path
must be set in the Text/Picture tab under
Properties, in the Format menu.
• If the path is not in the record, you can add the path by activating the Specify Directory
Name checkbox.
• You can search for the corresponding directory that contains the pictures using the Browse
button.
