Hi,

I created a subreport that has a page header which list
my field names. When I run the report by itself the
column names appear. however, when I imbed this report
as a subreport, they dissapear. Is there a way to make
these appear when they are a subreport?

Thanks,

Chuck
 
Subreports do not support page sections or events. You can create a new
primary sorting and grouping level on a constant expression like:
=1
Set the group header to display. Then set the Repeat Section property of the
=1 group header to Yes. This will be your new "page" header.
 
i'm having the identical problem of chuck's.
this workaround looks promising but it's not clear to me how the mechanics
of it would actually get implemented.

can you flesh it out some more?
 
hi,

disregard my question ..... a little elbow grease and it's working like a
charm.

way to go, duane!
 
How far did you get? Did you create a new primary sorting and grouping level
in the subreport?
 
To be a bit more explicit, since I was confused (like Ted) ...

While the subreport is selected, open "Sorting and Grouping" and type "=1"
as the Field/Expression, and set the Group Header property = Yes

This should add a NEW header section called "=1" to your subreport. Click
on it and set the Repeat Section property to Yes, and then just dump your
header into this new section (not in the Report Header).
