How can I access a textbox place on a Local Report? As far as I can see the
Report is not "visible" from the main windows form.

What kind of report?  A crystal report?

Chris,

No, it's the Report type in the Add New Item dialog, just before the Crystal
Dialog (rdlc extension).

I want to be able to do individual editing for a sheet of small labels for
electrical wiring, so I don't want to take my data from a database; at least
not directly.

That was why I had asked you which type.  I'm have not used the Report
type object.  You can do what you want in crystal, and the data does not
have to come from a database to use crystal, you can just pass it to it
in a datatable.
