question about suppressing repeated values

edited December 2004 in General
Hi,

I've got a little problem with my reports.
The design is something like this:

Group1
Detail1
Detail2
Detail3
...
Group2
Detail1
Detail2
...
...

What I want to achieve is that if a value in the detail is repeated, it
becomes suppressed. So if Detail3 and Detail2 in Group1 are the same,
Detail3 is suppressed. This works fine with the suppressrepeatedvalues set
to true for the detail band.
However, if Detail1 in Group2 is the same as Detail3 in Group1, Rbuilder
thinks this is also a repeated value, and it suppresses it also! I don't
want this! :-)
What should I do to prevent Rbuilder from suppressing stuff in a subsequent
group?

Thx in advance,
Tom De Waele

    Try assigning the DBText ResetGroup properties.

    The behavior of DBText SuppressRepeatedValues is influenced by the
    ResetGroup and ReprintOnSubsequent properties.
