How to split one report into separate print jobs

edited July 2013 in General
Hi,

Win7 + Delphi 7 + RB 11.07 Ent

I have a very large (long) report, that spools into several GB in one print
job. This can be several hundred pages and can hang the print process in
certain situtaions.
Is there a way to split this report into separate print jobs? I have a
TppGroup in this report, and the perfect solution would be to have separate
print job for each group. I can see the "NewFile" property of a group, but
it only applies to the output file, correct?

Regards,
Jarek Dabrowski

    Hi Jarek,

    Only Reports and Section Subreports can be separated into their own
    print jobs. The easiest way to accomplish what you need would be to
    manually filter the data sent to the report and call Report.Print in a
    loop so each "group" is printed individually.
