Subreport detail (on next page)

rbuser

Hi everybody!

I work with Delphi 2007 and RB 10.06.

I have a subreport in the detail band and when the subreport detail reach 19
records i need to repaint the main (parent) report to another page, and from
the next page, the subreport detail needs to start printing from the 20th
record, and so on.

How do I do it ?

Hi Ricardo,

Try using the DetailBand.PrintCount property to limit the number of details
printed on each page. You can also set the subreport to KeepTogether so
that a new page will start or perhaps place it into a NewPage group.

Hi Nico,

I'm using the DetailBand.PrintCount property = 19 and I set the subreport to
KeepTogether also, but it don?t work.

Also, I haven?t found the NewPage group property you mentioned .


Any Ideas ?

Hi Ricardo,

In my testing placing a group around each subreport did the trick. Simply
create a group based on the master field in the main report and in the group
dialog, set the Create New Page option to true.

Hi Nico!

Thanks for your tips! but to my case don't work.
I go explain everything that's happening.
I have two datasets, one in the report main and other in the subreport.
One record of the dataset main Report will can to have many records in the
dataset Subreport.
One page contained two record of the main report when subReport has 18
record or less, when the subreport has 19 record or more one page will have
just one record, but when the subReport printCount property = 19 will need
reprint all report, main and detail, and restart the subreport from the
20th record.

How do I do it?

Hi Ricardo,

I created the following example to show what I meant. This report does
exactly what you describe below only I limited the number of details in the
subreport to 3. The rest of the entire report is printed on each page after
three details are generated.

Hi Nico !

Thanks you very much for your example, it was really helpful.
But, I like to print the same person in the same page? and not in the next
page.
Following exemple file.

Hi Ricardo,

For future reference, please send all examples and attachments to
support@digital-metaphors.com.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by printing the same person in the
same page. In the example I sent, the company was re-printed on each page
after the limit on details was met, similar to your example.

Hi Ricardo,

I'm sorry but I still do not understand what you are trying to accomplish.
Perhaps if you send me an example of what you would like your report to look
like to support@digital-metaphors.com I will be able to better understand
what you need and better help you find a solution.
