Add a Sub-Report

If you want to add a Sub-Report (another report included in the current report) in a report, look first for the Toolbox

If the Toolbox is hidden, use the command <View> <Toolbar> <Toolbox> to see it.

Once the Toolbox is visible, select the following object:

 Allows adding a sub-report in a report block.

Then place the mouse cursor on the required location in the block where you want to add a sub-report and give the correct size to the object thus defined.

Double-click on the object or on the right mouse button then <Properties> to display the Properties dialog box.

Select now the Data tab and feed the required edit boxes such as Data Source (Report name), Child and Parent Data Link. In the Data Source edit box, you can select directly the report name to be used or use the browse button to open the sub-report previously selected. If nothing is selected the message "Item name undefined" will be displayed. You cannot create here a sub-report if that one doesn't exist.

Refer to the Sub-Report Properties for more details about the properties.
