Report Data Not Printing

Hello,

I have a report which contains 3 sub reports. In the parent report I have
information that is displayed in the detail section that does not show in
print preview or print out period.

The same is occuring in the sub reports. However, in the subreports,
information located in the details section is the only data that is being
printed. I have data that I would like to have printed that is located in a
header group.

Basically, everything that I want to print is being displayed in report
view, but is not being displayed in the print preview nor is it being printed.

I am not sure how this happened, I have gone through all of the report
properties and everthing is set to Display Always and I do not have anything
hidden.

If anyone can help me it would be appreciated!

Thank You!

Do you have any code that opens the report and then at some point closes a
form that might contain criteria for the report?

Hello Duane,

I do not think that is happening because the records in the subreports are
displayed, how could they display if I didn't have a record in the parent
Report?

There is a record in the parent report because you can see it while viewing
the report in report view. For some reason, my controls on that report become
hidden in Print Preview. In Report View everything displays.

What I ended up doing is recreate the report. Now everything is showing in
both Report and Print View and prints out all the information I need.
However, I am running into a stupid problem and I do not know why this is
happening.

I have my subreports set to grow and shrink. If some of my reports grow,
they begin to hide my other subreports, but only in Report View. I tried
grouping them together by 'Stacking' and it is still happening. Do you know
why this is happening?

Please let me know your thoughts when you get a chance. Thank You!

I am not aware of any overlapping of subreports unless there are controls
that might begin overlapped slightly in design. Make sure the section
containing the subreports is allowed to grow.

Have you tried with other printers?

Hi Duane,

We did not try with other printers, but I don't think that would have
mattered, because in the print preview it definitely showed that it was not
going to print it all out.

However, I did all of the steps that you have described, and there was
nothing overlapping anything else (not even a little bit) and I set
everything to grow/shrink. When I was testing the report, I was returning all
records that matched, however, The purpose of this report is to return only
one record (I will be using a filter where ever it is used). Durring my
testing, everything seemed messed up in report view. I left it alone for a
while and opened it using a filter and now it seems to be working fine.

I seems a little strange that it did that, but as long as it is working,
that's all that matters :)

Thank you for your help with this!
