Compare records between 2 different subreports?

[Santos]

Hi,

Is there a way to compare 2 records beween 2 subreports? For example, I have 2 subreports and I would like to match records between the two. I want to set it up so that if there is a match, then the matching record will be suppressed. I tried using the shared stringvar statement with no luck. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

This is how I would do it...

I would make globally shared stringvar values for each of the fields. Then, in the main report, I would make shared numbervar fields. If the creteria for suppression is met then 1 else 0. Then in the subreports, I would suppress based on that shared numbervar (if 1 then true else if 0 then false)...


OLet me know how it goes.
