  • Hi Nico,

    Good News!! :-)

    I solved this problem setting each subreport NewPrintJob property to false
    in PrintDialogClose event when PrintToFile is set .

    Thanks!

  • Hi Nico,

    Yes, thanks, it was exactly what i done and worked! :-)

    But i have one more question, can you help me?

    When i used the PrintToFile option and tried to print my report to PDFFile,
    it was printed to PDFF…
  • Hi Nico,

    What i need is controll each section subreport copy.

    For example, i want to print two copies from 1? subreport and only one from
    2? and 3? subreports.

    How can i do that?

    Thanks!

  • How would the pipelines work for this Nico?

    I dont think the first one will work, because I need the child report to
    have its own pipeline

    I think your suggestion would lead to header being displayed followed by the

    The 'custno' fields appears to be case sensitive...

    Problem solved, thankx a lot.

  • I spoke too fast.

    The link doens't 100% works.

    The first linking field (A) works fine. But the second (B) doens't
    seems to be considered.

    I don't get any error but I get voor each main record one subreport
  • Cool...it seams to be working!

    Is there also a parameter/function to set the link type? (LEFT OUTER
    JOIN, INNER JOIN...etc?)

  • Thanks,

    I have linked the tables on one of the 3 original fields, sorted
    every dataset the same way, and manually filtered on the last 2 fileds
    in the subreports self.
    So I set a variable to the current values and only use…

  • Joining different dataset in the pipeline is what I am doing.
    I just have no way of grouping the data in the first table in the way
    I want because I don't have a "uniq" field to join with the other
    datasets, but 2 fields...altho…
  • Hi Niko,

    In the pipeline I have actually 4 separated tables, they are not
    linked together in the samedataset (I'm not sure I know what DADE
    means).
    I have a main report with the main table en 3 subreports voor the 3

  • Thanks so much that did help...

    Still one area I'm bogged with though. My first subreport 'A' is set up
    with specific primary and secondary sorts. Now the second report 'B' is
    set up with different sorts to report 'A'. This me…
  • Hi,

    Just to let you know, I've had the same problem with all my customers
    report between version 7 and 10 of the report builder.
    When the variables used to update totals are string, it doesn't work
    anymore. But when I chang…
  • The CalcType is set to Traversal and the DataType is set to String

    That must be it cause my other reports are set to Double or Single (the ones
    that work). I know this report used to work so it must have changed during
    one of…
  • I Moved my TppVariable.OnCalc code to the OnCalc of the TppDbCalc for the

  • I'm using D2007 and RB 10.07

    The second question is kind of where I'm baffled. As far as this part goes
    its identical to all the other reports. The other report are just different
    views of the same information. But the Tota…
  • Hi Nico,

    It is a network printer but i have complete access!

    Nothing changed, i just try to print whit this printer and didn?t work. I

  • I'm using RB 9.03. Thank you for your help but I ended up formatting my
    report differently to avoid the problem with it going on to a second page.

  • I have tried to look at that example but could not get it to work. I do
    not want to use subreports because there may not always be data for the
    second page and I only want to print the second page if there will be data
    there.
  • Thank you but I probably didn't explain myself well. I have a report
    that is composed of 8 subreports. The subreports are named rptSC1,
    rptSC2 ... rptSC8. With no changes the outline tree shows Main and then
    indented rptSC1. Under…
  • Same problem. A cross table in a subreport.
    I was trying to understand why it's not working.

    When I link the 2 dataset on a text field the crosstable in the
    subreport goes nuts. (data is not filtered, or data changes when I
  • I've tried making a simple report with Delphi, the same way I did with
    the integrated report builder, and I can't replicate the problem.
    The report itself is simple, just a location table linked to an

  • Hi Nico,

    I unfortunatly don't have the option to print a report without first
    previewing it so I cannot try this, but I've removed the subreport and
    put the crosstable directly on the main report in the detail band of
    my lo…

    Thanks. I really don't have time to write my parser. Nor do I have time

    is a problem/bug with RB.

  • One other note. Report was originally done in RB7 and I am upgrading to
    RB10.

  • Nico/Chantal et al:

    The ShiftRelativeTo property DOES re-order the subreports correctly but
    only if I make them Child subreports instead of Section subreports,
    which means they then print all on top of each other: they don't s…
  • Hi,

    You might want to try the ShiftRelativeTo Property of the subreport.
    You set is for each subreport to build up the order in which they are
    printed.

    (subreport component right click option in design mode).
  • I have experienced this as well and have noticed that if you try a couple of
    time to copy it it will work, and if it doesn't you can rename the chart and
    try a couple of times and it should work...works for me anyways.
