Custom Code for Report Header
-
has anyone written any custome code for Report Header which is calling many subreports (sub1,sub2,sub3)
i need to display heading as SUB1, SUB2, SUB3 based on the subreport being printed
so for all pages of sub1 heading should be SUB1
so for all pages of sub2 heading should be SUB2
so for all pages of sub3 heading should be SUB3
PLEASE HELP.
*i cannot put headers in the subreport table headere as the subreports contain many tables charts and are very complex

Hi,
Have you tryed passing report parameter from calling report?
in main report while mapping with parameters add report heading as parameter and add the same parameter in sub report and show it.

At any given instance will all three sub reports SUB1, SUB2, SUB3 be selected/printed or only one of the sub report will be selected.
If the latter is the case, you can use the same condition that selects the sub report to change the heading in the main report, like = choose(sub Rpt Condition value, 'Hdr for Sub1', 'Hdr for sub2','Hdr for sub3') assuming sub Rpt Condition value returns numbers 1,2 or 3. If it is something else, you can use SWITCH.

Sorry, the approach that I have given above is only when only one of the sub reports is selected.
Cannot think of a solution at this time.
Sorry again.
