Main Report Reference - RB7.02 EndUser Program

rbuser

I have a custom subreport component in which I want to reference the
main report. I reference the subreports parent as
"Report.ParentReport" but how do I directly reference the ultimate
main report?

I need this reference to be thread safe for background printing and
Report Server use.

Thanks,

There is a Subreport.Report.MainReport property. For example, in a
subreport, it has an embedded child report object which is the
TppSubreport.Report property. In your descendent you can reference the
inherited Report property by name to get this object. This child report
object is a TppCustomReport and has the MainReport property which points to
the 'main' report you want.

Thanks Jim, I knew it must be there but for some reason my eyes just
didn't see it!
