column in your data source to the selected object. For example, if
you are creating a name badge, you might "map" the column
containing employee names to a text box.

your object. If you want to add data from more than one column
to an object, use the
String Builder to concatenate (join) data.

drop down menu. If you creating any filters or joins for the database
on the Data tab, only the columns you selected will appear in the
drop down list.

your label using the Bind to Another Object feature. If you want two or more objects to use the same

Bind to Another Object feature to quickly add the same data source and column to a new object.
Steps to Bind an Object to Another Object

then click on the Properties Box > Data Source tab and select
Another Object.
The Bind to Another Object screen appears:
2. Select which object you want to bind from the drop down menu.
3. Click OK on the Bind to Another Object screen.

another object, the data source will change for both objects
