Hi levanter,

Did you try it with a lower case 'c'? That may be the issue.

Thanks for your reply Williams
i got the answer, the property "Content" can be set only for the textItem and not for the label. For label the property should be set as "text". i got it by looking into the xml source file which is auto generated by the
BIRT designer.
