Change text field reference name in Labview

[Little_Helper]

Hi

I am using DIAdem in LV 8.5. I use the express VI DIAdem report to generate a PDF with some data in it.
When I start a new DIAdem report from a template, there are some standard fields available like Title, Subtitle, LastModDate etc.

Now I would like to add some of my own fields e.g. Material so I edit the template and add a Decoration>>Text under the Report tab in DIAdem and type Material. When I get back to LabVIEW my "problem" appear. The reference text to my new text object is called text13, how do I change this to what I prefer?

Best regards
Simon

Hi again Simon,

The only way to do that is to open up the TDR file in a text editor, like Notepad or Wordpad or UltraEdit, and search and replace all the "text13" texts in the file with "MaterialEditBox" or whatever you want the programming name of that object to be.  DIAdem does not provide a way to customize the automatic naming of REPORT objects that it uses.  The good news is that DIAdem is happy to accept your renaming in a text editor.  It's low-tech, but it works, and this is exactly how the example TDR files were created that ship with the DIAdem Report Express VI that you're using.
