Dataset Editor

This editor appears when you click the More Options button and check the Existing Dataset radio button, select an existing dataset and click the Edit button in the Data screen of the report wizard when creating a data component using a query resource in a page report. It helps you to edit the selected dataset.

The dialog contains two tabs: Data and Filter.
