Can you use formulas for data labels? If so, how do I do it.
 
Just place the formula where you want the column header. Or, if I didn't quite understand what you mean by a "data label", please clarify. Do you mean barcodes?

You can use formulas for data labels.

Here is a quick example:
@Data Label
Code:
"Employee Number"
Would return the text "Employee Number"

@Report Title
Code:
"Employee List As Of " & ToText(CurrentDate,"MMMM dd, yyyy")
Would return the text "Employee List As Of January 28, 2004"

Thanks Brian! I have a graph and I have checked show data labels. Where do I use the formula for these labels? Can I fomat them and can I supress them if they have a zero value?
 
Did the answer to this ever show up anywhere? This is the same problem I am having.
