Easiest way to print a report containing multiple pbSection style subreports without any datapipelin

rbuser

Hi,

I need to print a multiple page entry form without any real data, just text.
I tried a main report with multiple pbSection style subreports in its detail
band. Main report/subreports DataPipeLine is set to nil and AutoStop is set
to true. According to the online help 'When AutoStop is set to True, the
report will print a single detail band and then stop.' but it doesn't work
overhere. I only get the report printed with a JTPipeline attached to each
subreport and RangeEnd/RangeEndCount set to reCount/1. Any way to print this
multiple 'pbSection style subreports' report without any DataPipeLines
attached when not needed

Hi Filip,


We have not seen this behavior before. Which version of ReportBuilder are
you using? Are you loading templates? If so, you need to be sure the
AutoStop property is set to True when you save the template. One other
option would be to simply disconnect the pipelines when you don't need them
(i.e. Report.DataPipeline := nil;). Note that if there is no datapipeline
connected and AutoStop is set to False, the report will print infinite
pages.

Hi Nico,

I double checked my report and it (AutoStop) works now like it should.
Before i was using the pagestyle band from my main report (collection of
subreports) as a common pagestyle band for my subreports but i changed that.
Maybe this was causing the AutoStop not working like it should. Anyway
thanks for the help.
