Both has the same DataPipeline. Difference is in appearance and some
controls. Everything generaly is ok , but my client wants change
printing order for:
One record from subreport1,
one record from subreport2
One record from subreport1,

    Hi Maciej,

    You can use the Bring To Front, Send To Back options when right clicking
    over the subreport objects to change their z-order (order in which they
    print). The Report Tree will show you the current z-order which can be
    accessed by selecting the option from the View menu in the designer.

    ReportBuilder 11 now includes the option to Bring Forward and Send Backward
    making the process of fine tuning the z-order much easier.
