Common part of several reports
Hi there
I have several reports that have the Common subreport.
like
Report A: SubA1+SubA2+SubCommon+SubA3+SubA4
Report B: SubB1+SubB2+SubCommon+SubB3+SubB4
Report C: SubC1+SubC2+SubCommon+SubC3+SubC4
and so on.
SubCommon will be revised once in a while, so we have to
update every report.
Is there a way to load this common subreport at running time?
Because we bind these report for a book, I can not
break the report into several print job.
Delphi Rio + RB20
Thanks in advance.
regards,
AZA

It is possible to save and load report templates to individual subreports within a report. See the following article/example on how to use a standard header/footer by loading report templates into subreports. This is similar to what you would like to accomplish using the TppTemplate.LoadFromFile routine.
Subreport.Report.Template.LoadFromFile():
