Image/Grouping

edited May 2002 in General
Hello!

I have a small report with one Group. Every Group should print a Image.
Now it looks like this:

[=======] Group1
[ Image ]
[ Image ]
[_______]
Detail1
Detail2

[=======] Group2
[ Image ]
[ Image ]
[_______]
Detail1
Detail2

Now I would like to have i this way

[=======] Group1
[ Image ] Detail1
[ Image ] Detail2
[_______]

[=======] Group2
[ Image ] Detail1
[ Image ] Detail2
[_______]

The Image is fixsized so when not enough Details for this group are
available there should be blanks.

How can I do this?

    Place two subreport components side by size. Place the image in the
    subreport on the left and make sure that you do not assign it a data
    pipeline. Place the detail component in the detail band of the subreport on
    the right.

    I tried this. But with no success. The Subreport with the Details are always
    printing ALL records and not only the records for this group. Maybe you have
    an example? (Please with a group!)

    You need to create a master-detail query and assign the detail pipeline to
    the subreport so that the subreport only traverses the data appropriate to
    the group. You would link the datasets on whatever field you are creating
    the group on. See Demos 61-80 in the RBuilder/Demos directory for examples
    of creating master/detail reports and queries.
