Can you send me your report layout to support@digital-metaphors.com and
we'll trace this issue.

Section subreports should print headers and footers. Since you are using
6.03, there is a fix which is included in RB 7 that addresses an issue where
the band prints off the margins. It might be related to that fix. Please

For a subreport set to pbChild, the header/footer are not supported. A child
type subreport prints on its parent's page space and therefore behaves more
like a memo.
Options:
1. Use Title/Summary band.

Is the Stretch property set on the memo? Is the summary band set to be
dynamic height? A report with the configuration as you have described it
works in our tests here. Can you provide us a demo report that shows this
behavior to supp… -
You can reprint the detail band that the subreport is contained within
easily using the BandsPerRecord property. Here is an example which does
what you are describing:

If you are using section style subreports, the subreport header band will
replace the header band that would normally be printed by the main report,

Create a section style subreport that has a copy of the header in its header
band. Place it in the title band of the main report. That should do the
trick. Here is an example:

The OnGetText will fire every time that component's Text property is
referenced, either by your code or the internal report engine. Instead of
the OnGetText event of another control, you could place another variable in

What happens is that the calcs fire when the band tries to generate. If it
can't fit, then it moves to the next page, firing the calc again. When the
variable is in the band.the report engine takes care of caching the value

DBCalcs won't work across subreports in a main report. What you can do is
use TppVariables to perform the calculation. Here is a demo which
demonstrates this technique to show the detail totals in a main report

TppSubreport.Report.Datapipeline. The subreport class wraps a report object
so that it effectively is an embedded report.
To find the subreport, you can perform a report o…This sounds like the data pipeline might not be hooked up to the subreport.

loading of a subreport template while the main report is generating is
definitely pushing the envelope. I'll post the results of our findings here.
The problem is that the current folder id value in the report explorer is
not the same as the one where the template is located. Thus, when the report
explorer tries to load the template, it fails because it assumes that it is
located…Make sure that the subreport has its data pipeline property set. Then make

You can use the PageBreak control from www.bancoems.com\RBAddOn.htm.
You can also try using Section style subreports or use the TitleBand of a
