   6. To move the region, hold down the mouse button and drag the box to a new location.
   7. Create other regions as required.
   8. Select the region(s) of interest.

      To view all the regions you created, click in the Filters tab.

3. Set up the other query filters for your report. Choose one or more of the following filters:
