if the problem is relative to blank portions of pages etc..., insert any subreport in a group. In this way you can split your detail. Generally this type of problem occurs when the detail band il heigher of a page.

Sorry Hamza, but what do you aspects from this report?

 

There isn't a query or a datasource -> detail and group bands are not printed.

 

Please refer to this link to download an example master/subreport that don't use connections.

 

But I'm sure that you want use a connection...

Try to put your subreport in a "group header" band, and not in a "group footer".

 

(I can assure you that it's possible handle subreport with many pages :-)

Hello Giulio,

 

I am trying to develope a Report for one big programm that can have even hundreds of Pages.

 

This report contains some descriptions as text, which can hava more than one page.

 

The other Components of this report will be taken from JTables, which kann also has a lot of pages.

 

I can now develope reports with subreports. But this reports has only a single page and if i make subreports with more than one page only the first pages title will be printed.

 

if you could change the report that i sent you to print all 4 pages of the child report, it will help me to go further.

 

Thanks,

 

Hamza

 

 

 

 

The report i sent you was just an example, which has only one title for the master and 4 pages for the Child (because of the big size of the text).

 

But after puting the Subreport in the Gruppeheader of the Master it prints out only one page. But i print only the child report i get 4 pages.

Hello Giulio,

 

Sorry for the message at the bottom of my last mail.

Concerning the report i sent you:

I tried to say when i print out only the Child Report i get 4 Pages and when i print out the Master Report i get only one single page.

 

Sorry for my broken english.

 

Thanks,

 

Hamza

OK Hamza,

 

please open a Support request, so we have a way to exchange files. I'll attach to the support request the pdf generated and some other stuff.

Hallo Giulio,

 

After I got your files, i tried to work on my Stuff. In your files you used database and i tried

in the same way with JTabels but i didn't success.

Is there any thing i schuld change? or is that the same as for DB.

 

Thanks

 

Hamza

If you can with a JRDatasource created by a ResultSet (a JRDResultSetDataSource), also you can do the same thing with any other type of JRDataSource. You should "wrap" your jTable model using an appropriate JRDataSource. See JAsperReports API to see howto create your custom datasource.
