Need help for whileprinting

[OLTU]

Hi there,

CR version 8.5,

I need a support with using of whileprinting function.

In my subreport I made a formula which says:
whileprintingrecords;
shared stringvar name: name{client.name}
I placed this in details and it works!

In my main report I made a formula which says:
shared stringvar name;

I placed this in details in my main report
but I'm getting for the first record empty and the rest advanced.


Like :

mainreport Subreport
Order Name (SHOULD GIVE RECORDS)
1 A
2 A B
3 B C
4 C D
5 D E

pls help me to fix this out.

thx,
M.

You need to move the subreport into a section above the one that containc the formula in the main report for displaying the shared variable value.
I would create a new section in the main report, then move it above the existing section.
Next, move the subreport up one section into the new section.
I would then set the new sections Underlay property so that when the report prints, the values will appear next to each other.
