Static footer when I print many invoices ...

alessandro

My report prints an invoice so structured:
Master Data, Detail data, Page footer (before I used Master footer)

If I print an invoice it's all ok but instead if I print many invoices in page footer
report printed datas are that of the latest invoice and not that of printed invoice.
How can I resolve my problem?

The best way is to use subreports, instead of connecting the detail band to a ds set it to virtual 1 record,add a subrep, the objects that were in the detail band are then palaced in a masterband on the subrep, and that master band is connected to the original datasource for the detail band. you can then use a master footer for aggregate sums using the extended syntax of the sum function.
see yhe subrep demo in the fr\demos\reports\frdemo.dpr project.

Ok, but in this way sum datas aren't printed in the bottom of page.

then check freespace and cury of footer and drive it down
see the demo report summary at bottom use the same method.

But, No FREESPACE in FR3.05

this forum is for fr2.5
if you have questions about fr3 they should be in the fr3 forum
and yessit does have freespace
ie if engine.freespace.
