Data Tab

The Data tab allows you to specify the location from which the data is to be retrieved when you run the report. It also provides the option to define the Graphics filter.

If you have selected any of the options from the Table group box, the same option is also selected in the Condition Filter dialog box.
Any change in selection reflects in the Condition Filter dialog box as well.
However, if you change your selection in the Condition Filter dialog box, it does not reflect in the Table group box options of the Data tab.
