subreports and data pipeline

edited November 2007 in Subreports
Hello-
I am trying to figure out how to create a subreport in report builder 7.04.
It comes integrated into our Mysis Homecare applicaton. I have a button to
create a subreport, and at one point I even got the subreport to print
within the main. However, they did not sync properly, so that while the name
of my client showed int he master report group header, the subreport data in
the detail band was all the data, not assoc with client ID.

Is there a developer's guide somewhere for 7.04? Is it possible that the
vendor disabled some features?

Thank you
Beth Friedmann

    Hi Beth,


    Yes and yes. In order to create a report as you describe below you would
    need to link the two datasets in a master-detail relationship.

    There is an end-user tutorial called Learning ReportBuilder that can be
    downloaded from our web site for free. See the following article for more

    Learning ReportBuilder is a complete learning system designed to teach end
    users how to build a range of reports. This system includes a 125-page PDF
    file, a stand-alone application complete with a database, and a help file.
    The PDF file is comprised of a series of tutorials that step end users
    through the process of building reports as simple as a table listing and as
    complex as crosstabs. The tutorials also introduce conceptual aspects of
    report building along the way. The application is used in conjunction with
    the tutorials so that the learning experience is interactive. The end user
    just prints out the PDF file, runs the application, and learns
    ReportBuilder. The help file is accessible from the application, so all
    three tools work together to provide a seamless learning environment.

    Learning ReportBuilder installs into C:\Program Files\LearnReportBuilder.
    When the system has successfully installed, a complete set of instructions
    appears in the form of a 'ReadMe' doc, so the end user knows just what to do
    upon installation.
