Reusing footer components in multiple section subreports

rbuser

Hi

I have a report that has multiple section style subreports, each of which needs to have the same components showing in the footer (copyright info, page number, client name etc)

Should I load each of these components individually, or can I create a subreport and load it into the footer where required?

Cheers

Will

You can use a subreport, set to pbFixed. Size the subreport to be the height
of the footer. (The footer band is the one band in RB that must be fixed
height, it cannot stretch).

You can use subreport.report.Template properties to load/save a subreport.
(From the report designer you can load/save a subreport by accessing the
workspace for the subreport and then select File | Load Subreport).
