3. Select the Data Source and other settings such as Table and Column.


Table: Select the table you wish to source the data from. Some data sources may only have a default table available to select here.

Column: Select the column to use for this particular Title Field, if you leave this set to Auto, the data source will map based on the following:
 a) Will first look for the first column with the same name as the Title field, for example "Headline"

 b) If no column is found, use the column index that matches the Title field index. For example Headline would be Column1, Description Column2 and so on.


Format: This option can be used to add additional text to the data, for example "Name: {0}" will output the data as "Name: Bob"

A preview will be displayed showing the data that will be assigned to the title.
