The survey program, accessible via the Actual Wellbore Properties, is what determines which reports are included.

Each report comes with its own cover page.
The cover page contains the **Operator, Field, Well, Actual Well and Survey** names. These are taken from the Database Tree in the main Well Seeker user interface.

Above each survey listing are a number of header boxes:
The Field header is populated using data from the **Field Properties** dialog, accessed via the Database Tree.
