I have CR 8.0, unregistered, that came with LDRPS from Strohl. There are canned reports that have database fields pasted into text boxes, and it says that I should be able to paste DB fields into text boxes in text edit mode by holding the mouse pointer directly over the blinking text box cursor. The pointer should then turn from text tool to paste tool, but no matter how much I zoom in it will not change and will not let me paste the field into the text box. Any ideas? Could this be the only thing you can't do with the unregistered version (which I don't think can even BE registered now)?
 
Just drag the field to the body of the text box - hold it there until the text box cursor appears, move it left or right as needed and then drop it.

A computer only does what you actually told it to do - not what you thought you told it to do.
 
Thanks, Hilfy. People like you should be writing those Help files. :)
