Master with "multiple" detail bands

edited May 2005 in Subreports
Hi,
I am writing a statement report where the header shown the client detail
(name, address etc), but the detail have 2 separate independent portion, one
portion shows the current month transactions done, the other portion shows
all vehicle numbers transacted. This two portions printed on a fixed region
of the page and they have different amount of transaction records. I would
like to have both print on the same page and continue to subsequence pages
(if needed). The portion which have exhausted all transactions will stop
but the other which has more transactions will continue printing until it
also exhausted. (examples please attachment)

Can someone tell me how to do this? Thanks

    Hi Jonathan,

    For future reference, please send all attachments to
    support@digital-metaphors.com rather than posting them to this newsgroup.

    I would suggest placing two Fixed style subreports in the detail band of
    your main report, each connected to their individual detail datapipeline.
    You will need to size these subreports manually because Fixed subreports
    will only print in the space you allot. Then be sure the TraverseAllData
    property of each subreport is set to True so the data will continue to be
    traversed even is space runs out.

    Hi Nico Cizik
    Thanks for your answer. I have tried to place the subreport in header
    band and it works. I couldn't get the detail band work the way I want.
