I have requests for "wide" reports, for example 30 columns that require using two or more pages. I can simulate this by creating one or more subreports resembling the main format, and can even apply different page headers and page numbering through special code to make this combination of reports appear to be only one.
The user wants to place the corresponding pages side by side so that all data for one row can be viewed on a line horizontally. This is fine if each row is only one line of text but some fields on each report "can grow", meaning the report lengths can vary. Is there any way to capture and share row height information among main and subreports, or is there a better way to create a "wide" report? The width limit is landscape on 8 1/2 by 11 paper. Hope this makes sense. Thanks.
