# Data Driven Approach
We can also display the Reference line and Reference Range using the Data Fields of Reference Start Date and Reference End Date.
In the above example, ‘Planned Start’ measure is added in Reference Start Date and ‘Planned End’ measure is added in Reference End Date. ‘Task’ measure is added to Reference Text which will display the text on the Reference Line.
From the above example, the Reference Line is displayed using dotted lines, the Range pattern is displayed using checkerboard and the text is displayed on the lines.
### **Steps to configure:**
1. Go to the Format Pane->References.
