			Introduction 
It is common practice to add an image to an existing report template, or to replace a logo, such as the DataNet Quality Systems logo, with your own company or product logo.  The following is a step-by-step procedure for adding a new logo to an existing Report Template within WinSPC. This procedure should work for any report template within WinSPC.
  
 Procedure
  Inserting a New Image 
- Double-click on any existing report template from the Contents pane of the 'Querries/Reports'>'Report Templates' area of the WinSPC Administrator Tree.  
 
- NOTE: It is best practice to make a copy of any Report Template you intend to modify using the CTRL+Right-Click & drag method of WinSPC object copying. For more on this, please see the following Knowledgebase Article:
 
- https://knowledgebase.winspc.com/questions/62/
 
- In the Report Template Setup window that appears, click on 'Run Report Designer'.
 
- NOTE: In some existing Report Templates, you may be prompted to manipulate some paremeters in the 'Paremeter Editor' window. For purposes of this tutorial, just press 'OK' if that window appears.
 
- In the Report Designer window that appears, click on the 'Standard' tab. 
 
- Click on the 'Bitmap component' 'BMP' button.

- Click on the '...' button in the 'Image' property.
 
- In the 'Bitmap Selector' window that appears, click on 'Open'. This will allow you to select the Bitmpat that you would like to add to your Report Template.
 
- In the 'Open Bitmap' window that appears, sleect your image and press the 'Open' button.
 
- In the 'Bitmap Selector' window, press 'OK'. 
 
- Back in the Page Designer, you may further place and resize your image. 
 
- You may now exit the Report Designer by any of the 3 following methods:  
- Press 'File' -> 'Exit'
 
- The 'X' at the upper right-hand corner of the screen
