Some examples are embedding Word documents or Excel spreadsheets.<\/p>\n<h2>The Special Field Object<\/h2>\n<p>The special field object is used for printing report-related information. For example, it can print the current page number or the total number of pages. Since there isn&#8217;t a way for you to calculate this information yourself, this field was created as a catch-all for all the miscellaneous types of report information that you need. Table 2-4 lists the available fields and what they mean. These fields are treated the same as a database field object. They can be added to the report by themselves, or included in a textbox object. They also have all the same formatting options that were described in the Formatting Strings section.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Table 2-4.
