  Hi

  The following code still works:

  
              // Create the Detail section
              L_objSection = L_objReport.Sections[SectionTypeEnum.Detail];
              L_objReport.Font.Bold = false;
              L_objSection.Height = 200;
              L_objSection.Visible = true;
              L_objField = L_objSection.Fields.Add("fldDetailRow", "SpreadsheetRowNumber", 0, 0, 350, 150);
              L_objField.Calculated = true;
              L_objField.Font.Size = 6;
              L_objField = L_objSection.Fields.Add("fldDetailException", "LongExceptionText", 400, 0, L_objReport.Layout.Width - 500, 150);
              L_objField.Calculated = true;
              L_objField.WordWrap = true;
              L_objField.AutoHeight = AutoSizeBehavior.GrowAndShrink;
              L_objField.Font.Size = 6;
  
  

  I would like to update it to use the latest Methods but I can’t seem to work out how to include Calculated Fields

  Regards,
  
  Mark

  I have found that you simply have to use the Text.Expression property instead:

              // Create the Detail section
              L_objSection = L_objReport.Sections[SectionTypeEnum.Detail];
              L_objReport.Font.Bold = false;
              L_objSection.Height = 170;
              L_objSection.Visible = true;
              L_objTextField = new TextField("fldDetailRow", "", 0, 0, 350, 150);
              L_objTextField.Text.Expression = "SpreadsheetRowNumber";
              L_objTextField.Font.Size = 6;
              L_objSection.Fields.Add(L_objTextField);
              L_objTextField = new TextField("fldDetailException", "", 500, 0, L_objReport.Layout.Width - 500, 150);
              L_objTextField.Text.Expression = "LongExceptionText";
              L_objTextField.WordWrap = true;
              L_objTextField.AutoHeight = AutoSizeBehavior.GrowAndShrink;
              L_objTextField.Font.Size = 6;
              L_objSection.Fields.Add(L_objTextField);
