16. We also want to be able to extend to cost of the inventory ordered. Place your
cursor in the next Field property and click on the Build icon. Open the Tables in the
lower left side of the Expression window and double-click on the PO Inventory Table.
Type Extension: and double-click on POQuantityOrdered. Double-click on *; double-
click on the Inventory Table and double-click on InventoryCost. Remove the «Expr»
that was automatically inserted just after the Extension field name from the expression (and
any other «Expr» that may have appeared in your expression). Click OK.

18. Delete the SupplierCity, SupplierState, and SupplierZip Text Boxes and
Labels from the Purchase Order Report.
19. Delete the Labels for the SupplierAddressl and SupplierAddress2 fields and
drag the Text Boxes down to make room for the SupplierName (see Figure 5-21).
20. Delete the Label for the SupplierName field and drag the Text Box above the
SupplierAddressl field.
21. Click on the Field List 1m icon and drag the SupplierCompAddress to the
PONo Header section, below the SupplierAddress2 field. Delete the Label.
22. Adjust the field lengths for the address fields.
23. Now we need to look at the remainder of the Detail section. Make sure that
all of the data are clearly visible. In the layout we have chosen, for example, many of
the labels are truncated and the cost label needs to be realigned so that it is left-justi-
fied. We also need to make room for the Extension field to the right of the
InventoryCost field.
