Section Ordering

edited December 2004 in Subreports
Hi,

I have a report in which I have 3 section subreports in the Summary band.

I.E:
Summary
SectionSubReport1
SectionSubReport2
SectionSubReport3

No matter which order I visually put them on the screen, they seem to print
in the same order all the time.

For example, if I visually place them like this:

Summary
SectionSubReport3
SectionSubReport2
SectionSubReport1

They still print out in 1, 2, 3 order.

Is there somewhere or some way in which I can control this print order?

Thank you,

Jeff Guidotti

    Hi Jeff,

    The order in which the subreports print is determined by the z-order of the
    subreport objects on your report. To adjust the z-order you can use the
    "Bring to Front", "Send to Back" options by right clicking over the
    subreports in the designer. To see the actual z-order, open the Report Tree
    by selecting the View | Toolbars | Report Tree main menu option in the
    designer.
