data traversal usage

edited September 2002 in General
i am using RB enterprise version 7 on delphi 5. any example on showing the
usage of data traversal ? i know it was needed on controling the number of
selected records to be shown on subreports . i try the properties of range
begin , range end and so on TppDBpipeline ...
but how could i make the selected record on dbGrid to be shown on Report
Previewer using the method of data traversal?
and what's the other usage of data traversal?

    You have Neterprise, but I'll assume that you have datapipelines on a form
    instead of in DADE. Are the subreport datapipelines part of a master detail
    configuration? If you are showing the records in a grid, then you should be
    able to show only those records in the report. The demos which are included
    in the main reports demo project (RBuilder\Demos\1.Reports\Main.dpr) show
    how to print a report based on selected records of a dataset. Start with
    those demos as they should highlight some ways to accomplish what you need.

    Correction, you have the Enterprise version, not the Neterprise version:)
