The WR INSERT FIELD command inserts a reference to a field into area, replacing any selected text. The field is described by the numTable and numField numbers. You can also specify the display format of inserted numeric, Date or Time fields.
The numFormat optional parameter indicates the format of numeric fields (i.e., Real, Integer, or Longint). It can contain any numeric display format, whether it exists or not (for example, “###,##”). Put an empty string when this parameter is not appropriate, or omit it if the following two parameters have been omitted.
The dateFormat optional parameter indicates the format of Date type fields. It must contain a number that indicates an existing date format. Put 0 when this parameter is not appropriate, or omit it if the following parameter has been omitted.
Otherwise, use the following 4D constants, found in the "Date Display Formats" theme of 4D and the WR Parameters theme of 4D Write:
| Constant | Type | Value | Comment |
| System date short | Longint | 1 | 12/29/2006 |
| System date abbreviated | Longint | 2 | Sun, Dec 29, 2006 |
| System date long | Longint | 3 | Sunday, December 29, 2006 |
| Internal date short special | Longint | 4 | 12/29/06 (but 12/29/1896 or 12/29/2096) |
| Internal date long | Longint | 5 | December 29, 2006 |
| Internal date abbreviated | Longint | 6 | Dec 29, 2006 |
| Internal date short | Longint | 7 | 12/29/2006 |
| Constant | Type | Value | Comment |
| wr no date format | Longint | 0 | No date format |
The timeFormat optional parameter indicates the format of Time type fields. It must contain a number indicating an existing time format. Put 0 when this parameter is not appropriate or omit it.
Otherwise, use the following 4D constants, found in the "Time Display Formats" theme of 4D and the WR Parameters theme of 4D Write::
| Constant | Type | Value | Comment |
| HH MM SS | Longint | 1 | 01:02:03 |
| HH MM | Longint | 2 | 01:02 |
| Hour Min Sec | Longint | 3 | 1 hour 2 minutes 3 seconds |
| Hour Min | Longint | 4 | 1 hour 2 minutes |
| HH MM AM PM | Longint | 5 | 1:02 AM |
| Constant | Type | Value | Comment |
| wr no time format | Longint | 0 | No time format |
When you insert a picture expression, the optional destination parameter indicates where the picture must be inserted into the document. You can choose any value more than 0 or one of the following constants, found in the "WR Parameters" theme:
| Constant | Type | Value | Comment |
| wr on left hand pages | Longint | -12 | The picture will be inserted into the page and will be displayed on left-hand pages onlyif the even- and odd-numbered headers are different. |
| wr on right hand pages | Longint | -11 | The picture will be inserted into the page and will be displayed on right-hand pages if the even- and odd-numbered headers are different, and otherwise on every page. |
| wr on current page | Longint | -4 | The picture will be inserted on the page and visible on the current page (that containing the insertion point or the current selection). |
| wr into the text flow | Longint | 0 | The picture will be inserted into the text flow. In this case the other parameters will not be used and the picture will either be inserted at the location of the insertion point or will replace the current selection. |
| Any value >0 | The picture is visible on the page number passed in destination. The value must take the start number into account. |
When adding a picture expression, the optional size parameter sets whether the display rectangle will be kept or adjusted:
