each SubReport is set as Section Reports but the the one I want first is

    Hi Richard,

    ---------------------------------------------------------------
    Tech Tip: Controlling the Print Order of SubReports
    ---------------------------------------------------------------

    When subreports are in the same band, the following rules dictate the
    print order:

    1. Section style reports print first. Stretchables, like Child style
    subreports print second.

    2. For multiple Section style subreports, the order of printing between
    them is controlled by the z-order (i.e. BringToFront, SendToBack). You
    can visually see the z-order, by using the Report Tree ToolWindow (View
    | Toolbars | Report Tree from the Report Designer menu).

    3. For other stretchables like Child style subreports, the print order
    is controlled by the ShiftRelativeTo relationships that you define.
