Hi all,
Please help me with a *fr3 example who can make a table like this. I mean, I want to learn, how to merge cells in column 1 and column 2 in this way?

    Thanks Gp1 for your answer, but I can't see the TfrxDBCrossView component in my FastReport 4.0 menu.
    May be because I have Fast Report Embarcadero Edition?

    There is another way to do this kind of report?

    Thank you!

    I think you have to make a single query, combining the 3 separate ones, suitably ordered, and then use group bands etc.

    Thank you Technisoft for you answer.

    I've already tried this. The problem is that group bands are not the same horizontal line.

    I mean, Cell_1_1 in Group 1 on higher line than Cell_1_2 line in group 2 and column 2. It should be on the same line with Cell_1_1.
    Also, the rest Cell_1_1, Cell_1_2, Cell_1_3 should be on the same line.

    Moreover, if Cell_1_2 and Cell_2_2 are subgroup of Cell_1_1, then the base line of Cell_1_2, not be under Cell_1_1. Only a Cell_2_2 baseline should be under Cell_1_1.
    I do not know if I explained clearly.

    How can I do this?

    So right now, I have one ADOQuery with all records of 3 tables.

    What kind of bans should I use and what settings for these bands should have exactly?

    Thank you very much.

    You might be able to make a subreport for each query and place them side by side on a band. I have no idea whether that would work.
    If everything fails I'd make a temporary table which reflects the column and row structure.
    For your example the table would have 12 rows, 4 columns
    For column 1 only row 1, 4, 9 and 10 would hold data. It may need some work to get the border lines as per your example.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
