Get subreport Can Grow to repeat upwards instead of downwards?

52 New Member
Hello,

I'm trying to generate a report with a subform, with the Can Grow property set to Yes. In the attached picture, the list of bidders is the subform, to the right of where you see the row with the dates with "P" next to them. My problem is that the bidders cascade down instead of cascading up, resulting in a gap between the "P" row and the "F" row. The reason is because I'd rather have the gap be between individual packages (they're separated by the colored, blank rows), so that it doesn't look like the "P" row for one package is associated with the package above it.

[IMG]C:\Jesse\ProcSt atusReport.JPG[/IMG]

In design view, the "P" row occupies exactly one row, with the subreport inserted into that row. I have noticed that if I double the height of the row and place the subreport above the "P" data that it will cascade upwards. However, I want it to start on the same row as the "P" data instead of one row above it and cascading upwards so I don't waste a row for each package. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks in advance.

No one has answered this question yet likely because most people think it can't be done, but have been waiting to see if someone really smart will come along and show some whizz-bang way to accomplish it.

Personally, I have never attempted to do this. However, if I were to try, I would first of all experiment with making your controls invisible and using the Me.Print method to print the text directly to the underlying report.

You can feed the Me.Print method the x and y coordinates, the font, etc. It takes a considerable amount more programming but can be quite flexible.

This is the method that I am currently using in a subreport for printing a small booklet.

Scott

Guys - Is it possible to find which way system stack grows? Perhaps, I am not precise enough: When a function is called, the return address of (callee) function is put on the stack. Thus, the question is the direction where that stack heading (address increasing or decreasing). How would you implement this in cpp? any suggestion.

Main report contains one large graph in the detail band (no detail records). Subreport snakes just fine (5 columns) when opening by itself. When I add it to the main report (in the report footer), it shows just 1 column and spills over to 5 pages. I've tried moving the subreport to the detail band: no go. All bands/objects are set to Grow and Shrink. Any ideas?

I tried to fix a problem for a client today in which report sections and even individual text controls in some of their reports are being split across page boundaries.

It turns out that the report in question is actually a combination of 2 other reports based on different tables. The reports should follow one...

I know this is a very fundamental question. I am still quite confused if the program call stack stack should always grows upwards from the bottom, or the opposite, or doesn't matter?? That means the stack pointer should go upwards when there are "push" operations, and stack pointer should go downards when there are "pop" operations?? If this is the case, the address should go upwards (increasing) or downards (decreasing) then? i.e....
