The Report Tree is dockable to the left or right side of the Design view. The upper portion of the Report Tree shows the main report and any subreports nested within it. The bottom portion of the window is an object inspector in which the attributes of the component you have selected can be viewed and edited.

•Organize components within each band.
•Select components quickly in the report layout.
•View and edit the attributes of each component.
