Editing data in a Grid/Graph

You can add dataset objects to an empty Grid/Graph container, and you can edit the data that is displayed in the Grid/Graph container, such as formatting rows and columns of a grid report, sorting data, formatting the legends or axis titles of a graph report, and so on.

Editing a dataset on a document changes only the grid or graph dataset in the document; it does not change the original report. To format the Grid/Graph container that the dataset is placed in, see Formatting Grid/Graph containers, which discusses borders, title bars, backstyle, and quick switch, among other formatting options.

Because editing changes the grid or graph in the document, not the original report, then if the Grid/Graph is linked to the original report as a shortcut, you cannot edit the Grid/Graph data. You can format the Grid/Graph container, whether it is a shortcut or not. For steps, see Formatting Grid/Graph containers, which discusses borders, title bars, and quick switch, among other formatting options. For steps to unlink a Grid/Graph shortcut, and more information on shortcuts in general, see Adding a Grid/Graph as a shortcut.
