Is there a problem with nested sub-reports?

rbuser

Hi

I have a master detail print where the detail rows are in a subreport. The
detail band of the subreport contains a subreport that is filled with rows
from a jit memory table which is created in beforegenerate.

I am having problems with page breaks and blocks of data being repeated.

D6 RBV7.0

There is no known issue.

Doyou have left to right traversal of the detail band in this subreport?

Make sure you are using the latest build of RB 7 dated 9/18/2002.

Are you dynamically creating any report components as the report is
generating? Typically, this isn't supported. You'll have to create the
controls before the report begins printing. The reason is that the cache
manager is setup with the initial footpritn of the report so that it can
handle caching as the report is generating. If the footprint changes, then
the cache manager becomes out of sync and the report cannot generate
correctly.

If you can reproduce the problem in a simple example using DBDemos data,
please send it to support@digital-metaphors.com and we'll look into the
problem.

No - default


How do I tell?


No


The problem was circumvented by replacing the nested subreport with ppMemo
which has its height reset and lines loaded in BeforeGenerate. I now have a
new problem relatingto lines and shift with parent --seperate post.

Sorry - I don't have time at the moment to do a demo - maybe some time in
the future ;-)
