Repeating the MasterData for n-times

edited 4:57PM in FastReport 4.0
Hi,

I tried to find a similar question like this in the database but had no luck.

I want to repeat the MasterData for n-times, where n is the number I'll set up before printing the MasterData.
The thing is that I would like the same data to be printed until the print number is equal to n, and the next data to come after this and that to be printed n-times also.


Thanks in Advance.

    Set the RowCount property of the band to your n (n *2 maybe).
    Then put some control inside the onbeforeprint event of it to get the next data to be displayed.

    do not connect the band to a dataset set its rowcount property and control dataset positioning from script code.
    var
    ds: TfrxDataSet;

    ds := Report.GetDataset('frxDBDataSet1'); use the username of the dataset
    you can now set the ds to first, last, next, prior. you can test eof and obtain record count.

    Hi Gordk -
    I need the same, can you kindly post more details about this technique?
    In which event do you put this line:
    ds := Report.GetDataset('frxDBDataSet1');
    Please be patient I am a beginner...
    Thank You - Lorenzo -

    place it in the empty begin end. block on the code page this is the first code to be processed

    Use MasterData and DetailData band. Set MasterData.Height to 0, set DetailData.RowCount to n and place memos with MasterData dataset fields on DetailData band
