One band, multiple subreports, how?

[thiagot]

I have a main report with 12 subreports inside it

 

Is there a way I can put all together in the same band or do I have to create a lot of groups to have a lot of bands to make it work?

Oops sorry I found the answer in another post.

 

Just go to subreports properties, Common tab, set the Position Type = Float

Just a quick heads up.

 

I tried producing a report that 3 had subreports in it, using the Position Type 'float' property. It did produce the report with the subreports, and it did float the subreports. But, there was an unacceptable amount of blank space between the text in the main report and each of the subreports.

 

You might want to check out the 'Empty main report with subreports' posting thread. It gave me the key of placing each subreport within a dummy Group Header Band. Doing that resolved my spacing problem.
