Report Layout Question/Advice

Greetings,

I have a report that is essentially 3 discrete pages.. each page has a dynamic area and some header and footer verbiage (hence a "page" may actually span several pages).

I am wondering what is the best way to lay out this report.

E.g

"Page 1"

Header section where a student can write in name, address etc.

Then a table that outlines the courses currently offered, with some footer instructions on only selecting up to 5 classes.

 

"Page 2"

Details about sports teams the student can play on and then a table listing all available sports that year.

 

"Page 3"

Instructions on class trips and a table outlining what class trips are available.

 

 

Would I be best suited to use sub reports?  Multiple Detail bands, tables, or a combination to achieve this type of layout?

Thanks,

Rob

1 Answer:

Create 3 different jrxml (report layout) for each "page" and use report book to concatenate them together.
