Using report elements questions

[kaydara]

 Hello guys, i am creating a report and i'm having some doubts about the right use to give to the bands.

 

In the title band i created my report first page, a page where i have a picture and some informations about the report.

 

in the page header i defined the header that i want in all page of my report

 

NOW, before i start listing data i want to include a table of contents... and the only thing i have to do that is a detail band, and i think detail band isn't the right one for this.

 

How can i solve this guys ?

Hello,

 

Add the Table of Contents to the title band. Separate it from the other title info with a page break if you like.

 

Hope this helps,

 thanks despec,

 

that can be a option, but imagin that i have the title page full with my cover page of the report, i need a full A4 landscape page for my front page, any change to extend title in any way ?

hi,

 

add the cover page or the table of contents into a subreport (in the title band).

So you can have

 

Report

-Title band

----Cover page

----Page Break

----Suberport (you can do this 1 px height)

----------Table of contents

-Page header

-Detail band

...

 

This way you only need like 2 pixels left in your title band to use for the table of contents.

 

I hope this helps,
