Inifinite report

edited April 2005 in General
Hi,

I'm using RB 7.04. I am having a problem w/one of my reports printing
infinite amount of pages when I preview the report to the screen. My report
header contains 5 regions followed by a subreport. Each region is set to
shift relative to the one before it and the subreport is set to shift
relative to the last region. When the subreport has enough data in it to go
to the second page (I belive), it starts prining an infinite amount of blank
pages at preview.

After doing some digging and playing around with the settings I figured out
that if I don't make the subreport shift relative to the region then
everything prints out fine (prints in 2 pages), but unfortunately I have to
have the subreport shift relative to the region.

How can I fix this problem? I read that whole article on tech tips,
but it doesn't give many answers.

Thanks,
Yelena

    Hi Yelena,

    I am unable to recreate this on my machine. If possible, please send a
    small example of this behavior to support@digital-metaphors.com in .zip
    format and I'll take a look at it for you.

    Hi Nico,

    I sent you an example. Were you able to see the problem?

    Thanks,

    Hi Yelena,

    Thanks for the example. However, this is a fairly complex report. After
    taking a look at your design, I do not see anything that would cause this
    behavior, but it would be much easier to work with if I could see a working
    version of the report on my machine. If possible, please send me a working
    application that can execute this report or a simplified app that
    demonstrates the same behavior.
