Crystal Reports for Eclipse Developer Guide

Formatting and modifying report objects

The ReportClientDocument object model allows you to add and format report objects anywhere in the report. Report objects are the visible entities that define a report, such as charts, fields, subreports, pictures, and hyperlinks. Report objects store information about the object's size, position, border, and color.
Every report is broken up into areas, and each area is divided into a number of sections. Report objects can only be placed within a section. For more information on areas and sections, see the Crystal Reports Online Help.
