Subreport headers not printing

edited August 2003 in Subreports
Hi Guys,

I have a report that has 3 subreports placed on the main report's
detail band. There is nothing else on the main report. The headers &
footers for the subreports aren't printing. What should I be looking
at?

Thanks,
Steve

    This is the designed behavior. Here is an article on this topic.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------
    Tech Tip: Subreport header/footer bands do not print for
    Child type subreports.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------

    For a subreport set to pbChild, the header/footer are not supported.
    A child type subreport prints on its parent's page space and
    therefore behaves more like a memo.

    Options:

    1. Use Title/Summary band.

    2. Use GroupHeader/GroupFooter. If you need to repeat the header
    when a page breaks then then you can create a group and
    set Group.ReprintOnSubsequentPage to True.

    Group headers sound like the best option. Thanks very much...
