Type (objectType)
The Type property specifies the type of the report element.
This property is automatically set when you drop a specific element on the page. You cannot edit this property directly from the Properties view.
To change a report element from one type to another, right-click and select Convert to.
If the Type property takes the form Field (report-element-type), the report element is a Field. The Type property may change if you edit the Field Name property; for example, if the data type changes from a string to a decimal, the Type property changes from Field (WordBox) to Field (DecimalFormatBox).
You can find the Type property in the Object category of the Properties view.
