Properties window to get an overview of the report. With the exception of the Name field, the information
in the Report Properties window is different
from the information that appears on the Properties tab
in the right pane of the designer. The Report Properties window
provides information such as who created the report and when it was
last modified.

after a report is saved. You can add or change only the Description and Keywords for
the report in the Report Properties window.
