Hi,

Text elements are required for Translating purpose. You have declared a free string but haven't declared the corresponding text element for that string. Thus the error. Please double click on the string and create the text element to get rid of the error in code inspector. This is not a mandatory thing but should be done.

Hope it helps.

Hi create text element and have your text. Use only text elements in the program. Otherwise the text will not appear when the report is opened in other languages. Text elements are mainly for translating purpose and also you can avoid hard cosing of values. If you need to change the text later, you can directly go to text elements and change it there instead of searching throught the code. It is not an error but its always advisable to use text elements to have user defined texts in program.
