Dynamic Subreports

[rchandr3]

I have this BIG problem standing before me and my deadine:

as I told, I need dynamic display of subreports, two subreports per page and the two can be the same subreport or need not be.

I have pasted the same set of subreports at the top and at the bottom to achieve this. Problem is I cannot suppress one of the two if I want to. If I pass the suppress formula, both of them get displayed or not.

I dont know whether I am clear or not!

Simple words: how can I display selected subreports out of the lot (of subreports) dynamically from vb code with crpt32 ocx?

I was thinking that getsubreporttochange will make only the called subreport to display and all others wont be but that is not the case

Please help me

Put all potential subreports into the report, in seperate sections, and then conditionally supress the section containing a subreport, either from your code, or using a parameter.

But my intial reaction is you've overcomplicated the design and the problem. A simpler approach might make life easier.

Why do you need two subreports? Could your data be organised differently to do all you want using groups in the main report.

hi chelseatech...

if i could suppress, y i need suppress sections, i could do that using suppres subreports itself!

i have ten different kinds of independant reports liked by a single table and i dont know what two subreports will be needed at runtime with biggest drawback is that both can be the same report on a single page!!!!should be complex!

anyhow, i am redesigning the report structure!
