subreport basics: field linking

Hi,

I'm trying to understand the subreport demo ("10.fr3").

The visual stuff is quite clear, what I don't get:

How (on earth) are the reports <=> subreport1 <=> subreport2 linked together?

I've tried to do a similar report with three queries on three tables, and I always get the full table in each subreport because I don't know where and how to define a link condition.

Any hint is very appreciated.... I'm stuck in basic things I know! ;)

Cheers,

Daniel

    It reads "User Manual".
    In it you it will find information on the construction of reports.

    Hey, I even read the manual!
    But with nested reports, I didn't find out how to link datasets!

    Same mechanism as with master-detail datasets???

    Thanks

    So let me guess...

    For nested reports (subreports)
    * I have to link datasets with MASTERFIELDS and DETAILFIELDS properties
    * I have to do this outside from Fastreport

    ? Is there a way to influence this field linking in the fast-report designer ?

    Thanks!

    You have to link the datasets outside from FR. "Subreport" demo uses linked datasets.
