Summary Section Only
Hello,
The question is how to make a summary section appear when no detail records
are displayed.
Conditions:
The recordset which is passed to the report, contains data which is grouped,
with a new page for each group. In cases where there is no data for a
group, a single record is included with a "no data for this group" field.
When a "no data for this group" record is encountered, a line is added to a
memo which is situated in the report summary. This is done instead of
generating a "no data for this group" page. The problem arises when all
groups have a "no data" record. How can I get the summary containing the
memo to appear, when there are in effect, no detail records to report.
Thank you,

You should be able to use the Report.OnNoData event to check if the report
has no detail records. You could set a flag inside this event and if the
entire report generates without any data, you could display your summary.
