<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>The <a class="xref" href="C1.Report.Field.Text.html#C1_Report_Field_Text">Text</a> property contains the text that will be rendered on the report.</p>
<p>This value may be rendered literally (without any translation) or it may be evaluated as a 
<b>VBScript</b> expression, depending on the setting of the <a class="xref" href="C1.Report.Field.Calculated.html#C1_Report_Field_Calculated">Calculated</a> property.</p>
</div>
<h5 id="C1_Report_Field_Text_examples">Examples</h5>
<p>The code below creates two fields. One displays the label &quot;Sales Tax&quot;, the other displays the
tax value by multiplying a database field (&quot;Sales&quot;) by a constant.</p>
<pre><code class="lang-csharp">// display literal Text
_c1r.Field[0].Text = "Sales Tax";
_c1r.Field[0].Calculated = false; 

// display a calculated value
_c1r.Field[1].Text = "Sales * 0.085";
_c1r.Field[1].Calculated = true;</code></pre>
