    Over-riding DataDate

    OK I see. I'll consider this as a strategy in future. Thanks for the tips!

    Over-riding DataDate

    Hi buck149, Resetting PrintDate (via the method described above, anyway) DOES change the value of PrintDate, but has no effect on DataDate. It's important that our reports use DataDate since the reports are run via CE ePortfolio and we keep historical instances. We need to be sure that the...

    Over-riding DataDate

    Thanks guys for the very quick feedback! That must be the date over-ride feature I was thinking of. I did a little experiment though, and unfortunately that setting over-rides PrintDate, not DataDate, so it won't solve this particular problem. Guess I'm back to the drawing board on this one... :)

    Over-riding DataDate

    I have a report (CR 10, running on CE 10 ePortfolio) that uses DataDate to generate page headings (e.g. "as of Jan 07") and to select the current month's data from the database. Unfortunately, a database problem was found, so I have to rerun the report as of November 06 and December 06. Is...

The text object prevents drill-down only for that part of the subreport it covers; if the subreport is longer, the user can drill...

    Preventing Drill on a Subreport object

    jontvr, Thanks so much for the suggestion. I tried using "Insert Box" to draw a rectangle (I hope that's what you meant?)... the rectangle does expand with the subreport, but the rectangle doesn't prevent me from drilling on whatever's inside it. Boxes don't have many settings. Is...

    Preventing Drill on a Subreport object

    Hi all! I'm using CR 8.5, and delivering to users via CE. Does anyone have a good solution to prevent a user from drilling on a subreport object? My report contains a subreport in the report footer. When the user floats their cursor over it, the cursor changes to a magnifying glass (i.e...

    Detecting page overflow

    Hi all.. My report footer, and several drill-down group footers, contain subreports which use approx 2/3rds of a page. For various reasons, the subreports are defined as 'Keep Together', but when they skip to Page 2, the users are confused because there can be so much of the page left blank...
