Action[Statement] Adds an item to the field list used in report design mode.
ScopeUsable anywhere.
Notes

This statement lets you pre-select the fields that will be used to build a report in quick design mode. It can be used with the SysReportFlags, SysReportTitle and SysReportTotal system workareas, followed by the Execute ReportSetup statement, to provide a way of quickly generating ad hoc reports from a running application. FieldName specifes the name of the field to add and the order in which the fields are specified determines the order used when the report is run. The list is reset on exiting report design.
