Each data type will have a unique set of format options – eg Text, Date or Numeric.

Sub Format

Depending on the format option you have chosen for the column above you will have a separate set of sub format options. Select the appropriate sub format option.

Section Style

Select from three available section display styles:

  • Single Page: displays all sections on one page.
