Subreports with mixed page orientation

Mike Koyne

I have a report with the following:

Page1 (poPortrait)
--ReportTitle
--PageFooter
Page2 ((poPortrait)
--PageHeader
--Group
--Master
--Detail
----SubReport1 (poPortrait)
----SubReport2 (poLandscape)
--PageFooter
Page3 (poPortrait)
--ReportSummary
--PageFooter

Depending on a value in the Master band, I set the visible property of SubReport1 and Subreport2. When SubReport2.visible is true, the data prints....but only in poPortrait. I need it to print poLandscape.

In Code...Page2OnBeforePrint I call:
if SubReport1.Visible then
Page2.Orientation := poPortrait
else
Page2.Orientation := poLandscape;

This does not fix the issue. Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance,

Mike Koyne

page orientation is a property of the designpage once it is set it does not change, it remains for the life of the report(all the pages output by that design page and its objects).
the only way you can have different page orientation is to create multi designpage reports.
