Using CanGrow Property on Subreport

[RobHudson]

Hi

I hope this is the right forum for this question...

I have a subreport on my report and I have set the CanGrow property to true [on the main report] as there will be varying numbers of rows in the subreport.

The subreport grows just as you would expect. The bummer is that it does not move the remainder of the report down accordingly. So effectively the subreport has grown over the top of the rest of the report [sorry for bad english ].

Is there a way of saying allow this to grow but make sure all the rest of the items below move down accordingly?

I am relatively new to CR so be gentle with me if I am being a burk! I am using CR that comes with Visual Studio .NET and am calling it with ASP.NET.

Thanks
Rob

Hey Rob,

Have you checked to make sure that the section of the main report where the subreport is placed doesn't have the Underlay Following Section option tagged on?

Hi Naith!

Have just checked, the Underlay Following Sections is already unchecked...

I guess that means -

Any other ideas??

Thanks
Rob

Is your subreport in its own section? It will automatically overlay anything that is is the same section as it even if the overlay is set to no.

Hey!

That's sorted it then!
I created an extra detail section and put it in there. Hey presto works fine now

Thanks
