Subreports w/regions

edited September 2004 in Subreports
Hey All,

Have a subreport w/5 regions w/1 variable length memo and paragraph label
per. Having a problem with subreport

going over multiple pages (set to KeepTogether). Depending on the length of
memos subreport kicks to additional

pages and depending on the region and memo length within region sometimes
the region completely reprints on the

subsequent new page.

Scenario is very varaible as to what prints and length. Some memos are empty
and do not print. Have set the

ShiftRelativeTo to prior region. One scenario is that if the prior not
printing affecting pagination for following

region.

Has anybody run into a problem like!
TIA

    Please modify your newsreader to post your real registerd user name and sign
    your messages with your real registered name.

    1. Make sure that you are using the latest release - RB 7.04.

    2. If you set any objects in a ShiftRelativeTo chain to Visible of False,
    then you need to reassign the ShiftRelativeTo relationships to contain only
    visible objects.

    3. If you still have an issue, please create a simple example using standard
    Delphi components, DBDemos data and RB. Email in zip format to
    support@digital-metaphors.com and we will check it out here.

    Thanks For Replying,

    All the objects are set to Visible = True by default and DO NOT PRINT based
    on blank data. Assuming that visible is set to false within RB component,
    at what point and which event during print processing would be the best time
    to trap visible status and realign the ShiftRelTo to the appropriate object.

    TIA

    Try using the Band.BeforePrint event of the band that contains the
    subreports and regions. You can set visibility and redefine the
    shiftrelativeto relationships here.
