Printing from 2 reports alternatively

rbuser

Hello.

We are using v5.0 vs Delphi 5.0 (my company is in process of migrating to
BDS2006 / Report Builder 10) and we need to do a report capable to mix
pages from 2 reports. I'll explain.

We have 2 reports (A and and the sequence of pages could be as presented:
- page 1 of A
- page 1 of B
- page 1 of A (another record or another instance of report)
- page 1 of A (this time B is no present)
- page 1 of B
- page 2 of B
...

A has 1 page maximum, but B maybe present or have 1 or more pages.

Our intention is to present our client 1 report containing a series of
documents so they could, for example, print of PDF. We know how to join
two reports, but not how to do it in a 'mix' way. Someone could help us?

Thank you in advance. (and sorry for my english)

Hi,

Take a look at the following example. This report contains two section
style subreports, then through some processing, rearranges the pages as they
print manually. It is not exactly what you need however it should get you
on the right track using the same techniques.
