Original & Duplicate @ same time

quiquedcode

Hi guys...
I need to make a 2 pages report...
It is like a receipt... and i need to print original report, which is for client, and print a duplicate report which differs from original in some things...
Both things have to be printed each time an order is printed.
It is not variable in pages qtty, the report would be always two A4 pages...

Any ideas ?

I never learnt the meaning of "multiple" for reporttype property... maybe i need this ?

Or maybe the concept of subreport ? ...

Where could i look ?

thanks

All you are doing is emulating the old method of carbon copies, 3part paper, where copy 1 was invoice, copy2 was packing slip with no pricing, copy3 was invoice file copy.
Duplicate your original design page on to a new design page and either turn off
visibility of memo's you don't want showing or delete them from that page
make report component type rtmultiple, this prints all designpage1 out put then all designpage2 output and so on
the trick is which dataset to connect to the report component itself, and that will depend upon the original design page and what dataset was used as master, and if you are printing a single invoice or multiple invoices for the same, and how datasets are controlled, settings of frdbdataset components or filters applied to tables, in some cases you may want to connect the report component to an fruserdataset set to 1 record.

you deserve the 1?? prize to patience with a honor mention too !!
i managed to find how to add a new page to report, then copied all the report variables i had in 1?? page, modified layout so this page counts as duplicate and voila !! it worked !!
it worked also with master data and all this stuff...

thanks again gord !!
