Duplex print with multiple section and certain subreports

rbuser

Hi,

i have the following problem:

in a report i generate for each customer two letters.
Each header of the letter has to print on top. When the last page on the
first letter is reached and it is 1, 3, 5 an so on, an empty page covered in
a subreport is displayed using the visible property.
i identify the end of each letter by catching the summaryBeforeGenerate
event and set a boolean variable to true
In the ReportOnStartPage event i ask for variable and set the Subreport
(with empty page) visibility to true (or false if Report.PageNo is 2, 4, 6
and so on).
It works till the last Subreport in Letter 1 spans only over 1 page. If it
is longer, no empty Page of the Subreport neither the second letter is
displayed. Only infinite Empty Pages occures under this circumstances.
Should i change my strategy? i have no idea

It would be nice to get a solution

Check out the Pagination thread of the Tech Tips newsgroups. There are a
couple of techniques listed there that you could try.

If you would like to create a simple example project using the DBDemos data
that demonstrates what you are trying to do, you can e-mail it in zip format
to support@digital-metaphors.com and we can check it out here. Please use
only standard Delphi components, RB, and DBDemos.
