multiple subreports with similiar queries
I've set my program up so users can preview and print up to 10 different
reports at a time using one main report form with 10 subreports already
setup. Their selections are then loaded into the subreports, with any unused
ones being set to invisible. Many of the reports are similiar with slight
variations, so the background query might be similiar. There are over 100
reports that they can pick from where they were all edited or created as
individual reports.
My problem is that when they are combined into one large report, similiar
header names conflict, reset variables don't always work because they are
keying off group names that have now changed ect... What is the best way
around this? They want to preview them at once, not one report at a time.
Thanks for any help,
Karen

to create unique names for all your reporting components so that the event
handlers and reset groups don't become incorrect for what you want to do.

objects, one for each group. Then you can change the name of the group that
way.
