Hi everyone,
I'm making reports that are based on queries, and the data has several levels of grouping.
I have set up a report with several nested group headers, but I'm currently stuck where either my data shows up multiple times (in the case that I have the data in the header section) or it has a big gap in spacing (if it's in the detail section).
I've narrowed down the problem to the fact that I have parents (group headers) that have the same data as the children in nested group headers which is the same as the children in the detail section.
Does anyone know of any resources for relatively advanced Access Report formatting? I've surfed around, and I find a lot of basic examples, but nothing when you've got even slightly complicated data...
Help?
Thanks,
Lea Ann

Hi,
Pay attention with the grouping in your query...
Open your query first and see the result of it.. If there is repetition so the problem is in the query and it concerns the grouping!

Can you post the query you are using for the report that may be the problem.
You could also look at creating subreports for each of the groups.

I don't think this is gonna help too much, but I get all my info from the help files then, if that's no good (whenever?!?), I look on the web - that's how I found these forums.

tblCourses one to many to tblEvents.
A course may have an intro workshop (a type of event), a mid course
workshop, a final exam. Or any combination. Or something different in the
future.
At the moment the printed output is usually going to Word. It's turning into
an unholy mess, because I'm having to prepare umpteen different Word
templates, and the queries that drive them, depending on what events a
course has.

I'm having trouble with exporting reports to Word in the rtf format and
I'm hoping someone has a solution. The reports are losing their

lost and everything gets repeated.
I've created several reports that pull data from various tables then
they get exported to Word when they're run so the user can...

want to base a standard document on query data, but would prefer to

I can save as rtf etc. but you lose all...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
