Multi page report

rbuser

Trying to write a report that has only 2 pages.

Get only on record from the database.

Page 1 has some db data and alot of text and take up the whole page

Page 2 looks total diferent and must be on a new page, it also has some db
data and alot of text.

Cannot get the second page to show... I am using 2 sub reports but no luck.

got any ideas...

Hello,

For future reference we prefer you use your real name when posting to these
newsgroups.

Try creating an empty main report with nothing but a detail band. Then
place two Section style subreports inside the detail band. The first
subreport will be your first page and the second will be your second. You
can design and connect them to data independent of each other.

Garth,

We also prefer you use your real name in the "from" section when sending
posts. Currently your name is "vader4d", please change this as well.

You need to be sure your subreports are individually connected to the proper
datapipeline in order to traverse. While designing a subreport, select the
Report | Data option from the main menu in the designer and select the
proper datasource.

Have done that but no luck... Try to do a sample report with a label in
each subreport to try and see if I can get the 2 pages .. no luck..

See if you can get it working..

Hi Garth,

Are you sure you have your subreports set to Section style? In my testing I
created a simple main report with only a detial band and two Section
subreports inside it. Inside each subreport was a TppLabel component. When
previewing the report, the first label was on the first page and the second
label was on the second.
