A Static Expression displays formulas in mathematic notation but does not calculate them.

In static expressions, formulas are typed in like in a spreadsheet, but they appear in mathematic notation. Unlike dynamic expressions, static expressions are never calculated.

Insert a static expression:

1. While inside a report or multiline cell, select the insert tool.
2. Select Static Expression.
3. Click OK.
4. Type in the formula.
5. Click OK.
