Adding a chart using fields
Before you add the chart, you should ensure that the currently selected text block is
either:
the text block that contains the printstream data used to fill the fields used
for the chart’s data values, or:
a text block that occurs after the text block containing the printstream data.
 
To select the text block  before adding the chart :
1. 
Click on the Chart tool,
2. 
Open the Environment menu and choose the Select Text Block option (or use the
shortcut keys Ctl+N). The Select Text Block dialogue will be displayed listing
the text blocks in the environment. The currently selected text block will be
highlighted.
                                
3. 
Select the text block containing the extracted printstream data (or a later text
block), then choose OK. The selected text block will be displayed on your page
in BLACK. The remaining elements on the page will be displayed in 
BLUE.
