iReport Header

[ahmy_1]

Hi, I'm new to iReport and i was wondering if i can create a report with only page header in it and then use it in my other reports so i would't have to create the same header over and over again. And if i change something in the main page header report it would change the other reports

You can just create a report with the header and link to it as a subreport in your reports.

It's also possible to create a template but reports that used a template won't be updated when a template is modified.

That said, I actually just write a simple program/script that would insert xml tags/update jrxml files intead of doing the above because it's faster to render than using subreports.

Can you give an simple example like the HML of the main report that gets its header from another reprot?
