Mail Merge

edited February 2004 in General
Hi,

I have a sub report which with a rich text mail merge object that needs to
merge data from the main report pipeline.
Are you planning to offer the ability to merge variables and data from
pipelines other than the report pipeline?

    Hi Ray,

    I'm not sure I understand the question. ReportBuilder uses its own
    datapipeline archetecture to enable it to connect and retrieve data from
    virtually any datasource. It is also possible to connect your subreport to
    any pipeline residing on your form/datamodule, there is no requirement to
    use the main report's pipeline. You also have the ability to link
    datapipelines into a master-detail relationship granted each dataset is
    ordered by the key field.
