Multiple subReports

[mariarita]

Hi,

I have two subreports inside the same report.

The length of the first subreport is not fixed, as it depends on how many rows are returned by a parametric query.

Is it possible to tell iReport that the second report must start immediately after the end of the first subreport?

I tried to graphically place the two subreport one after the other, but iReport interprets the layout in absolute sense,

i.e. it places the second report on the exact place _on_the_page_ where I designed it , not after the end of the previous subreport (whose length is not known at design time)

 

thanks

Hi,

SOLVED.

I placed the second subreport inside the "summary" band - it works both if I use the "summary" of the main report, and if I use the "summary" of the first subreport.

You could have also used groups. I have reports with scores of subreports in them. I use Groups without Group Expressions setup and I place each subreport in a separate group band.
