  • First of all you need to select the correct table for the field you wish to include in your reprot.
  • Click the 'Patients' option in the 'Table' list.
  • Now you need to select the correct fields. Double Click 'First Names' in the 'Field' list.
  • Repeat this process for all the other fields listed above.
  • Each time you double click a field, it should be entered into the Display List on the right.
  • Your screen should now look like this.
