Hello all,

I have a report with a sub-report. The sub-report is located in the Detail
section of the report and linked (master and child) using a book code. The
problem that I am having is when I have records in the sub-report, they will
show for each record in the Detail section of the report. At the same time,
when there are no records in the sub-report, the sub-report area will have a
big area of blank (again) for each record in the Detail section of the
report.

What I like to do is when there are records in the sub-report, instead of
showing after each record in the Detail section of the report, I would like
all the records in the Detail section of the report group and show the
records of the sub-report after the records of the Detail section of the
report for that book code.

On the other hand, when there are no records in the sub-report, I would like
the records of the Detail section of the report grouped without showing a big
area of blank.

Please help. Thanks.

Hello again,

I got it figured out. I placed the sub-report in the book code group
footer, which solves the problem of repeating after each record in the Detail
section of the report, and set the Shrink property of the sub-report to
"yes", which solves the problem of having a big blank area.

Thanks again.
