The Linked Database Panel

Allows you to change the linked database and select records to print.

A linked database is a database you have linked to your design. You insert text fields into the design to display information from the linked database.

A linked database consists of either a file (such as Excel, Access, CSV, etc.) and one or more views that allow you to define filtering and sorting rules.
