I have a report which has several sub reports. Each sub report starts on its
own page, and may be 2 or 3 pages long.
I'd like to create an index on the first page of the main report. Something
like:
Clients........ ......p1
Sales.......... ......p3
Salesmen....... ..p4
I'm not sure how I would do this, as I don't know before hand what page a
sub report will start on.
Is this even possible?
Thanks

Thanks. I'm using an ADP, so I can't use temp tables, but I'll be change the
code to use an array easily enough.
The kb method requires the report to open to generate the TOC. Is is
possible that I could open the report once, close it through code, then re
open. When I re open I would have the information required for the TOC. Is
there a way to open the report 'invisibly' the first time? Or even a way of
closing it?
Thanks

In the lastest versions of Access you can open it hidden:
DoCmd.OpenRepor t "Report1", acViewPreview, WindowMode:=acH idden
Closing it programmaticall y is:
DoCmd.Close acReport "Report1"
The real problem with that approach is that Access only fires the events of
the sections for the pages it has to format. That means it needs to walk
through all the pages to generate the TOC. I haven't tried this, but you
might be able to output the report to the nul: device as a way of forcing it
to walk through its pages and generate the contents data:
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "Report1", acformatTXT, "nul:"

We are evaluating the prospect of integrating and/or using Crystal
Reports with some of our current products. Some of these are still in
Access 97 and are running well. Since we cannot include the report
wizard in a runtime environment, we are looking at ad hoc report
writers like Crystal.
Can we include Crystal with our runtimes and/or is there another
report writer that we should be looking at? Any and all help is
greatly appreciated.
