Accessing and Ordering the Data

Because the Payment Letter report definition already contains the joins to the tables that contain the database fields, you must only attach the Paylet.txt memo file to the report definition.

Follow these steps to attach the memo file:

  1. Choose Report Attach Memo File. The Attach Memo File dialog box appears.
  2. Type c:\rbtutor\Paylet.txt in the Memo File field. Report Builder assigns Paylet as the file alias.
  3. Choose OK. When you access the Insert Fields dialog box, the name of each memo defined in the memo file appears in the field list under the Memo Fields heading. Because you defined two memo fields in the Paylet.txt memo file, Payment and Late–Notice will appear in the list.
