You can specify which record from a data source should be used to populate a data field. For instance, you could add the team lead’s name to the overview of employees.

Steps

1. In Microsoft PowerPoint, open your document template.

2. Select or insert the desired data field.

   

3. In the dox42 Data Fields explorer, go to the Row text field and enter the value of the desired row in the data source.
   In this case, we know that row 2 includes the data from the team lead.

   

4. Select OK.
   The configured data field in the template includes the row number in square brackets ([n]).

   

5. Save the PowerPoint template.

Result

You have configured a data field to include data from a certain row of the data source. When you generate the document, only the data from this row will be included.
