Different generated reports within 1 preview window

rbuser

Depending on the criteria a specific report is going to be generated.
because the criteria can differ it's possible we could end up with different
generated reports. I don't see any problems just printing these different
reports in sequence.
But what if we want to preview all those different reports. What we would
like is to show all those different generated reports in just one preview
control. Is this possible and if so do you have a demo for this.

This is wanted for a new invoice printing system. Which report has to be
used depends on the customers setting.

Mind you we're using report builder version 7.04.

Thanx in advance,

Hi Luc,

Sorry for the delay in this response.

One option would be to generate the report multiple times with the use of
subreports inside a main report. You would need to assign the same template
to each subreport and change the criteria for each one before previewing.

Another would be to generate each report and print them to archive files.
Then using the third party archive merger, you can view all the reports as a
single archive using the archive reader. The archive merger can be
downloaded from our web site at the following address.

Thank you for the suggestions I'll try the subreport solution first if it
doesn't work out the way we like, I'll check on your other suggestion.
