Mastersource property
I have FastReport 4.2. I do not have Delphi.
When I try to create a master-detail report, I am unable to simply because I cannot connect the detail band to the master band. How do I do this?
The documentation says I should set the MasterSource Property of the Detail Dataset. How do I do this? There is no such property in the object inspector.
Any help appreciated!

Sorry to piggyback off this posting...but I am converting from Rave to FR and am experiencing the same problem. In rave, you can establish a master-detail relationship between databands by telling the band who its 'master' is. I've not found a way to do this beyond the table component within Fast Reports.
I am using the data connectors within FR to tie back into my BCB project against two kbmemtables. The memtables have the ability to acknowledge each other in a master/detail relationship, but this functionality within kbmem's component does not appear to carry over to FR. So...like the original poster, how do I tied these two bands together. I do not want to point back to tables defined within my database, I'd like to use the memtables that I'm pre-populating within my c++ code.
Any help/direction/suggestions would be highly appreciated!
Thanks!

edit: We have since identified our problem. Initially, (converting from QuickReports to Rave), we had to remove the m/d relationship that had been established between the two memtables. After renewing that relationship, Fast Reports worked as expected. Props to Rave Reports for confusing the heck out of us. Glad to be on board with Fast Reports!
