I havn't done many reports, but I can answer a few things.
#1 - If my memory is working - a section group is tied to a table, and then
runs once for each row of data returned by that table.
#2 - DataFieldName just ties a control to a field from the datasource. You
can tie controls to either fields from the datasource or methods (code). To tie
to a method you leave this property empty and fill in the other one (can't
recall it's name - but it has the word method in it).
#3 - the 1-1 or 1 to n tells the system how many records to expect when
joining two tables together. Ie., Child--> Parent or Parent --> Child
relationship. If your on a salesline and you link in the salestable *under*
that, then you would use the 1-1 because a salesline only has 1 salestable.
However, if you reverse that and put a salesline under a salestable then you
would use the 1:n because one salestable entry can have many saleslines.
