Multiple Header Bands... not subset

rbuser

I followed your example (see Rob's posting on 2/26/04) to add multiple
header bands. What I'd like to be able to do, however, is to have multiple
bands that appear something like this:

Band1 Header
Band1 Detail
Band1 Footer

Band2 Header
Band2 Detail
Band2 Footer

or, if that it not possible, then something like:

Band1 Header
Band1 Footer
Band2 Header
Band2 Footer

Hope that makes sense...
TIA,

Hi Kumar,

If you would like a header and footer for each detail band, you need to
create a group that will break on each record in your database. This could
be done by grouping on the master key field, or by grouping on a custom
field such as a TppVariable that changes its value for each record change.

Let me try to start a little simpler. How can I add multiple bands to a
report such as this:

Header Band
Group Header Band
Detail Band
Group Footer Band
New Band1
New Band2

Thanks,

Hi Kumar,

Unfortunately there is no way to add extra bands to a report unless you add
static groups and use the group header and group footer bands. You could
base these extra groups on a static label. Something like the following...

Header Band
Group1 Header Band (invisible)
Group2 Header Band (invisible)
Group3 Header Band
Detail Band
Group3 Footer Band
Group2 Footer Band
Group1 Footer Band
Footer Band
