Connecting detail band other pipeline than master pipeline (in run-time mode)

edited September 2002 in Datapipelines
Hi,

i have several reports wich i can see both data pipelines (in run-time mode)
: master and details pipelines.... but with some reports, i can't see or
access the detail data pipeline to connect my detail band to other pipeline
(than master pipeline)..... What could be wrong ? Some tip for a brazillian
newbiee ?
Thanks in advance and sorry my poor english !

    Where is the datapipeline located? Is the form/datamodule containing the
    pipelines included in the project? Make sure that the datapipeline's Visible
    property is set to true. This will make it appear in the drop down list of
    datapipelines for the report at runtime. If you set a datapipeline to be
    Visible = false, then it will not show up as an available datapipeline.

    Welll, my form have a couples of DataPipeline, and the behavior it's like
    this : i open a report by double-clicking in ppReport, when i open a new RTM
    i can see both datapipelines (one to master report and other to assing with
    detail band....), but, with anothers RTM it's visible only the window to
    assign a datapipeline to master data.... remenber : all RTMs looks pipelines
    from same form, same ppreport, .....

    As i can't send the picture, i tried to show both windows :

    this "picture" it's from a RTM wich shows only one assign to a master data
    ....

    this is from other RTM (from same ppreport in run-time) wich shows both
    datas ....

    I thought could be something inside RTM ... but what ?

    The ability to connect the detailband to a datapipeline has been deprecated
    and should not be used. Each report and subreport can be connected to
    datapipeline. Use subreports to implement master/detail reports.
