Master records not printed if detail dataset is empty

edited January 2004 in Subreports
Hi,
I've got a problem printing a report.

I have three datasets, say, DS1, DS2, and DS3. Every dataset has
corresponding data pipeline. The datasets relate to each other as
DS1-->DS2-->DS3, i.e. DS1 is a master table for DS2, and DS2 is a master
table for DS3. Main report is set to DS1, it has one subreport set to DS2,
and this subreport, in its turn, has subreport set to DS3.

The problem is when detail dataset is empty (be it DS2 or DS3) the master
record is not printed.

What might be the cause of this behavior?

P.S. I use DBISAM as my database engine.

Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    See my thread just before yours.
    The "order by clause" (certainly an index in DBISAM) was not the field I
    used to group in the main report.

    HTH,

    Patrice.

    For the detail datapipelines, set SkipWhenNoRecords to False.
