Accessing column data in a nested report

[girls3dog1]

Is it possible to access column data in a nested report from a composite datawindow event such as "retrieverow" with the following code:

string_variable = this.object."reportname".getitemstring(row, "columnname&quot

I've tried this, but it can't find the column name, which I know is present in the report.

Thanks in advance for any assistance provided.

you have to use a DataWindowChild :

dw_1.GetChild(dwc) (see GetChild in the help)
string_variable = dwc.GetItemString(row, column)

or, if you really want to use .object property :

this.object."reportname".columnname[row] (not sure)
