Composite Report problems

rbuser

I have created several individual reports in and end-user application using
dataview templates. Each appears to run correctly when executed alone. Now
I want to use the individual reports as subreports so that the user may
produce the entire set by selecting the composite. However, now there are
problems with the data that is returned. In certain cases, one (or more) or
the subreports says that there is no data. In other cases several of the
subreports report data that does not belong to the selected project (Master
record).

Can anyone offer any guidance about what I should be looking for to resolve
this problem? I am using ReportBuilder 6.03 and Delphi 5 (with all patches
applied).

Use section style subreports in a main report. Are the data pipelines
configured properly? There should be no linking between the datasets as they
are all individual datasets and reports. The main report should have no
datapipeline hooked up to it. See the main reports demo project #51 and 52
for an example of this kind of report, though it is not an end user report,
the layout is the same.

Have you tried testing with RB 7 to see if the problem goes away?
