Hi Chantal,
You can use the TppReport.OnSaveText event to gain direct access to the
string being exported. The "Text" parameter is the string to modify.
Something like the following will add a ";" delimeter and break to the n… -
Hi Chantal,
One option would be set the TextFileType option to ftCustom, then use the
OnSave event to add your own formatting to each value. You would for
instance simply add a ";" character for each value until you export th… -
Hi Veri,
Are the regions set to Stretch? If you take the subreports out of the
regions are they still not visible? Try simplifying the report so that you
only have the three subreport objects in the detail band and see if yo… -
Hi Veri,
In my testing, placing three section subreports in a main report and setting
the copies to different values prints the correct amount of copies for each
subreport if the NewPrintJob is set to True and ParentPrinterSet… -
Hi Veri,
I'm a bit unclear about what you are trying to accomplish. The code you
have below simply sets the child report's printer to the printer of the main
report. What exactly is happening in this case that is incorrect?<… -
Hi Paul,
This is what I had in mind...
The main report only has a detail band with two section subreports inside.
The first section subreport is not connected to any data and contains a
header band (containing all t… -
Hi Paul,
One option would be to remove the header from the main report and move its
contents to the header of the first section subreport (mentioned in the
previous post). Otherwise, you might try placing the child subreport … -
Hi Penny,
Take a look at the demo located in the \RBuilder\Demos\3. EndUser\5. Dynamic
Subreport Loading\... directory for an example of loading subreports at
runtime.

Hi Chantal,
One thing you might try is manually link your datasets. You just need to
make sure that the detail querys are sorted by the linking field(s). And
make sure you link the datapipeline in the Report.OnInitializeParam… -
Hi Chantal,
DADE is the Data tab in the report designer or the data workspace where
queries can be created from within RB. By Master/Detail reports, I'm
referring to linking separate datasets using DataPipeline linking. (See… -
Hi Chantal,
Sorry for the confusion, I don't fully understand which dataset the
subreport(s) are connected to. Are you linking separate datasets in DADE or
are you joining the tables into a single dataset? Have you considere… -
Hi Sheldon,
Are these subreports connected to the same datasource (datapipeline)? If
so, you may want to create a separate datasource for each report, each with
their own query sorting the data as they should.

Hi Sheldon,
Once you have two section subreports in the main report, you will treat each
subreport as a separate report. If you are creating these reports from
scratch, simply tab over to each subreport's design and begin cre… -
Hi Richard,
Are you using RAP? If so, please post to the RAP newsgroup. This helps us
determine what you are trying to accomplish and allows us to give a more

Yes, it is now necessary to set the DataType of any numerical (calculating)
variables to something other than String. String variables are timed
differently to handle String specific cases (truncation, caching, etc.).

Hi Rodger,
There should be nothing wrong with calculating this way however it is a bit
concerning that the OnCalc for the TppVariables is not functioning
correctly. When you were using variables, what datatype did you have th…Hi Rodger,
Which version of ReportBuilder are you using? How does this report differ
from the reports that function correctly?

Tech Tip: Controlling the Print Order of SubReports

When subreports are in th…Hi Veri,
The fact that you are able to print to other printers successfully and not
this specific printer leads me to believe that this is a printer or printer
driver issue. Are you able to print to this printer from a local …Hi Veri,
This is not a known issue. Is this a network printer? Are you sure you
have complete access to the printer driver? What has changed since you had
everything working before?

The problem is the timing in which the DBCalc calculates its value and when
you assign the variable value. The DBCalc does not always calculate its
final value in the OnCalc event. In your case, I would recommend…Hi Edmund,
ReportBuilder retrieves data as-is from the dataset it is connected to. If
you would like to change the order in which data is displayed in a report,
you will need to create a SQL query that defines what order you …Hi Stef,
Which version of ReportBuilder are you using? In my testing with RB 10.07,
the SpreadSheetStyle example worked as expected. If there is not data for
the second subreport, it would be possible to simply toggle the vi…Hi Stef,
The best way to print a report wider than a page is to use subreports
similar to the SpreadSheet Style example...

Based on what each subreport node is named, you can use the

I'm sorry, I had thought this issue was resolved. In my testing, placing a
crosstab inside a subreport with a dataset linked on a text field seems to
work correctly. If possible please send me a small example I c…Hi Chantal,
Sorry, I'm a bit confused about the issue. Does this relate to the same
issue you were having with crosstabs?
There should be no problem with linking datasets on text fields. Be sure
both datasets are …Hi Chantal,
Excellent, I'm glad you got it working!
Yes, not knowing the complexity of your initial report(s), I may have led
you in the wrong direction telling you to place the crosstabs in their own
subreports. A…
