Typically, a detail dataset (a report or a query) is displayed in a Detail Region. However, using a TableList field, you can display a column from the Report or Query as a list of values, separated by a punctuation mark you specify.
For example, suppose you're using a report to gather a list of Contacts at a given Account:
![](/composer/files/202407.1.4/salesforce/143198750/143201123/1/1614942106206/dte1.png)
The merge field would look like the following. Notice the comma (,) as the last component of the field:
![](/composer/files/202407.1.4/salesforce/143198750/143201122/1/1614942106069/dte2.png)
Using a TableList field, you can display the results in a list:
The employees at your location are Rose Gonzalez, Sean Forbes, Pablo Estrella.
To create a TableList field:
Create a merge field with the following syntax:{{TableList:DatasetName:FieldName:Punctuation}}
- Where:
- DatasetName: is the name of the detail data set
- FieldName: is the merge field name as displayed in the Template Builder window
Punctuation is the character that will separate the list values. You may not use a quote (") or colon (:) as the punctuation value. Duplicate values from the list are removed automatically.
