-----------------What is Singleton?



-----------------What is Singleton?..

Answer / sandy

Singleton
A query item that you can insert anywhere in the layout of
your report where there is no query associated. When the
report is run, the singleton object retrieves only the
first row value for that query. Singletons are useful for
adding boilerplate text to a report, such as a company name
or address, to add overall calculations in a report, or to
add multidimensional cell calculations in a report.
