Help subreport

rbuser

I'm currently developing a report, which possess 7 sub-reports in it. Each
sub-report has a calcfield called 'variable', that represents the sum of
some values from the sub-report...

What I'd like to know is: How can I show, for example, a 'variable' from the
sub-report 1 in the sub-report X...? Or at last, the value of 'variable' 1
in the sub-report X.

I need those values to represent the sum of all the 'variables'.

Ex:

Sub1 -> Variable1;
Sub2 -> Variable2;
Sub3 -> Variable3;
Sub4 -> Variable4;

SubX -> Variable1; Variable2; Variable3; Variable4...

Thank you

You can define your TppVariables in the main report section, and use
them via code in the subreports.

Ex:

Declaration (main tab)
refSubreport1 = TppVariable;

From any variable.OnCalc in the subreports you can access this
variable and set its value or use its value.
refSubreport1.value := abc;

Hope this helps.

Hi Deivid,

Chantal is correct. Below is an example of how to reference a TppVariable
in the main report from a subreport. The same concept will apply when
trying to reference a variable in another subreport.

Do not worked properly,
Said the global var

VarReportCalc1: TppVariable;

And subreport1 added the suspect to variable2:

Variable2.value: = variable1.value + value;
VarReportCalc1: = variable2.value;

Then in the main report added to variable3 with the calculation:

Value: = VarReportCalc1;

The correct value is 480.00 but returned 143658200 ..

If I tell a value manual VarReportCalc1: = 10; it shows correctly then why
not bring the correct value when I informed the calculated field?

A TppVariable is a "pointer".

You must set and use the "value" of the variable and not the
variable itself. The same way you do for the Variable2 declared in the
layout.

So try this:

VarReportCalc1.Value := variable2.value;

Value := VarReportCalc1.value;

143658200 is actually the address of the variable and not its value.
