multi page form no header

edited February 2005 in End User
Hi

I am having the following problem.

I am tryingto create a multi page form, with a memo on the first (title
page) priting just once, follewed by as many pages as necessary of data,
with eah page of data having the same page header.

I have created as following :

Main report : data = none
In detail section of main report, there are 2subreports.
Subreport1: data = none
Subreport2: data = DBpipeline1

The problem is that I can only put the column headers for the data on
subreport 2 in the title, if Iadd a header nothing prints on it, but if I
use a title it only prints on the first page.

Thanks

Andy

What I want to print is similar to below
<1st page>
---------------------------------------------------
This is title text to print once on first page
---------------------------------------------------

<2nd page>
---------------------------------------------------
Column headers
---------------------------------------------------
Data
Data
Data etc.

<3rd page>
---------------------------------------------------
Column headers
---------------------------------------------------
Data
Data
Data etc.

    Hi Andy,

    ------------------------------------------------------------------
    Tech Tip: Subreport header/footer bands do not print for
    Child type subreports.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------

    For a subreport set to pbChild, the header/footer are not supported.
    A child type subreport prints on its parent's page space and
    therefore behaves more like a memo.

    Options:

    1. Use Title/Summary band.

    2. Use GroupHeader/GroupFooter. If you need to repeat the header
    when a page breaks then then you can create a group and
    set Group.ReprintOnSubsequentPage to True.
