subreport problem in title band

edited August 2002 in General
I have a subreport (PrintBehaviour = pbChild) inside of a title band. The
title band will only print on the first page, regardless of how big the
subreport should be.

What could cause the subreport in a title band to not print on subsequent
pages? BTW, the title band's print height is set to phDynamic.

Any ideas?

    The title band will only print at the begining of the report. Page headers
    and footers are not supported in child type subreports. Use a Section Style
    subreport if you would like to have page headers and footers. Set the
    Subreport.PrintBehavior property. The other solution is to use a group in
    the child type subreport and use the group header and group footer instead.

    Hi Jim,

    Thanks for the reply. I think you may have misunderstood my question.
    Here's the scenario:

    I have a report that is somewhat like a book. The first part is a "table of
    contents", the rest is a regular report with page numbers. I chose to put
    the table of contents in a title band with a subreport that lists the
    chapters and page numbers that will follow.

    My problem is the subreport would normally print say two or three pages for
    the table of contents. However, since the subreport is in a Title band, it
    only lists to page 39 (as much info as will fit on one page) then quits.
    The regular report then starts on page 2.

    Any ideas on how to fix that? Has anyone else reported problems with a
    multi-page subreport contained in a title band?

    Thanks again,

    Mike Rodriguez
