I wish to create new reports .
How can i choose custom fields to be displayed in the
report?? (i.e 'cost1' , 'text3'....)
I tried using the custom report , but i wasn't able to
choose custom fields....
Thanks

Dale Howard is the expert here.

Paraphrasing what he will tell you:

A report is a table + a filter + report details.

So ...

1. Find the Table which has the columns you want.
2. Create a filter to select the rows you want.
3. View | Reports | Custom and click the Select button
4. Select an existing report and copy it.
5. Rename it and make the necessary modifications.

I've never tried this. Please report back and let us know how you fared.

Thanks for the help , first.
What i eventually did , was :
1.I created a new table ( with the fields i wanted to
show in the report)
2.I created a new report based on that table.
