Details section -> KeepTogether???

edited December 2001 in General
Hi,
I have a master report with some data in the details section and a subreport
in the same section. Now, I'm trying to make the whole details section
KeepTogether (stay on the same page if possible)... Is there a way to do
this... I am able to put the whole subreport KeepTogether without any
problems (property in the RAP)... But I didn't see anything like this for
the details section... I also tried putting a region object that stretches
to the full height of the details section but it still doesn't work...

Thanks in advance.

    Hi Yann,

    Unfortunately the detail section itself does not have a "Keep Together"
    property, but there are several other methods of achieving this. One is, as
    you already mentioned, to put everything into a Region. This should work.
    But: Make sure that you move every component slightly on the region. It
    happened to me that the label, etc. was seemingly on the region, but it
    actually wasn't (for some reason). Another way is to use a sub-report and
    put everything (including the actual sub-report) into it. You can also use
    groups.

    Cheers, Marco...
