Hi All,

I have a Blank Report as main report on which I wish to place three ondemand Sub-reports. The main report has one parameter field called @month_id and three formula field A, B and C each returning 'a','b' and 'c'. Each subreport takes data from same procedure but with different argument to stored procedure,
The subreports are supposed to use following parameters:
Subreport 1: (@month_id, 'a')
Subreport 2: (@month_id, 'b')
Subreport 3: (@month_id, 'c')

Everything is fine upto this stage.

Now when I add a subreport, without modifying subreport links, and see the main report in Preview. I see the name of the subreport file name on the Preview. Which can be clicked for seeing the report.

But as soon as I link the subreport parameter with the main report parameter, the sub report caption becomes invisible.

Please tell me why this is happening.

Hi,

Have you specified a formula for the caption.
This is defined under the format subreport...
options when you right click on the subreport
from the main document.

Hope this helps,

Geoff
 
Hi Mr Fox,

I have specified the formula for the caption.
It is like 'Revenue Desc'. It doesn't work either.

But even if you don't give any formula , the rpt file name is the default strring that should appear as the link to see the subreport.
It is not happening.
