  • Hi Steve,

    1. Check that the subreport is connected to a DataPipeline and that the
    DataPipeline is correctly connected to valid data in your dataset.

    2. If you are creating a Master\Detail report, be sure you are linking…
    in SubReport not Printing Comment by nicocizik November 2004
  • Hi Vijaya,

    This is how I would set up your report....

    Main Report
    DetailBand
    Section Subreport 1 - Contains everything that is currently in your
    detail band.
    Section Subreport 2 - Contains the sec…

    There is no built in way to cause a page break in the current version of
    ReportBuilder. See the article below on how to work around this issue.

    in Page break? Comment by nicocizik November 2004
  • Hi Nols,

    The best way to suppress the printing of a subreport would be to set its
    Visibility to False. You can also disconnect the subreport from its
    datapipeline to make things run a little faster if you would like.

    in How to suppress printing of subreport? Comment by nicocizik November 2004
  • Hi Benson,

    Are you using a Section Style subreport? If so, it will always print on its
    own page, then RB will try to print any bands below the subreport on a new
    page.

    in empty page after subreport Comment by nicocizik November 2004
  • Hi Georg,

    Try setting the TppSubreport.Band property to nil and see if that helps.
    This should completely disconnect the subreport from the main report.

    in Report is too slow Comment by nicocizik November 2004
  • Hi Kemal,

    This report layout is a little tricky. You could possibly create a separate
    dataset that just contains the master information then at the top of the
    page, place a subreport connect to that dataset to print the initi…
    in I need an Idea for how can I make a report likee this ? Comment by nicocizik December 2004
  • Hi Jeff,

    The order in which the subreports print is determined by the z-order of the
    subreport objects on your report. To adjust the z-order you can use the
    "Bring to Front", "Send to Back" options by right clicking over the …

    in Margin between 2 subreports Comment by nicocizik December 2004
  • Hi Teemu,

    I cannot think of any issues like this for RB 6.01, but this is a very old
    version of RB. You may try upgrading to RB 7.04 for Delphi 5 and see if
    that fixes the problem. Also, you may try setting the Report.CacheP…

  • Hi Georg,

    Subreports consist of two objects, TppSubreport (the component you see on
    the main report) and TppChildReport (the actual subreport design).

    If you know the name of the TppChildReport the subreport is using, you…
    in How can I find out the DetailBand of my SubReport? Comment by nicocizik January 2005
  • Hi Dermot,

    In order to reference objects outside the scope of a report in RAP, you need
    to create a global reference to that object by using the Module section of
    the Module View in the Calc tab (I assume you are using RAP). …

    I have never seen this behavior before. If possible, please construct a
    simple example that demonstrates this behavior and send it in .zip format to
    support@digital-metaphors.com so I can take a look at it for you.

    What type of subreport are you placing inside the Title band? Be sure you

    in Header on SubReport Comment by nicocizik February 2005
  • Hi Denise,

    This is probably happening when there is just enough space to print
    subreport C, then the report engine breaks to the next page to print the
    second group footer. Next the report engine sees that you have a Section …
    in Blank pages Comment by nicocizik February 2005
  • Hi David,

    ReportBuilder 9 now includes a PageBreak component that would accomplish
    this fairly easily. You may also try placing a Section Style subreport in
    between these two subreports and see if that works.

    in Create a Blank Page Between 2 SubReports Comment by nicocizik February 2005

    You might try separating your report out into two Section Style subreports.
    For instance, your main report would only have a detail band with two
    section subreports in it. Inside the first section subreport would be…
    in Setting a Fixed Position for a SubReport Comment by nicocizik February 2005
  • Hi David,

    If you create a static height detail band (i.e. DetailBand.PrintHeight :=
    phStatic), you can size your detail band to a given size, then position your
    subreport anywhere you would like on the page. Unfortunately if …

  • Hi Kemal,

    Ah, I see... thanks for the better explaination. Try placing your text
    object inside a TppRegion with its KeepTogether property set to True. You
    can turn off the border of the region using the Pen.Style property.
    in How can I start a new page on detail ? Comment by nicocizik March 2005
  • Hi,

    I'm a bit unclear about what you would like to happen. By default
    ReportBuilder will break to a new page if a stretchable component cannot fit
    on a single page. If you do not want this to happen, you can simply set the <…

    and cache the data in a client dataset), are you still able to create this
    behavior? This could be a timing issue having to do with when …

  • Filip,

    I apoligize, but this is the best advise I can give you. There is no other
    way to merge two reports into one single print job unless you use two
    section style subreports in a single main report. However, as I mentione…
