Hello,
We need to analyze all label controls used in report design... Looks like Designer API is what we need but we are just a bit confused on how to search recursively through design object like DesignElementHandle, SlotHandle, DesignElement...etc. Not really sure how these objects relate to each other and how to extract one from another...May be, the board experts (Michael, Jason?) could quickly to point to an example that does something like that?

Thanks,
Alexey

Sorry for the delay. So, you want to be able to grab the values of all of the labels in a report design? Are the reports designed dynamically? Are there any dynamically created labels? Or are they all statically created? Will you use these values within the design? Can you explain a little bit more?
