headers in sub-report missing

edited October 2001 in General
I have a fairly standard report (the usual stuff, title, headers, footers,
detail band) which all work as desired. However, the detail band contains 5
subreports and when I wish to add headers to the subreport (the first one),
I can add said headers no problem - they just don't print.
Any particular setting I am missing that would cause this (or something I
need to turn ON)? Titles and summaries work fine, but headers/ footers
don't.

Thanx,

--Bruce

    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 StartNewPage to True.
