Rave Reports Visual Designer

DataText component (TRaveDataText) - Report Tab

The "DataText" component is data aware. It is very similar to the dbEdit component in Delphi.

This means you can use it to display a field from a dataset just about anywhere on the page layout. The main difference between "DataText" and "DataBand" is that "DataText" is for single, non-repeating occurrence(s) on the page. For example, this could be used to print the Customer information at the top of each page of an invoice.
