Child report in main report without repeated header

[Dolphinv4]

Hi,

I inserted a sub report in my main report. But the sub-report showing in my
main report in the preview does not have page headers appearing. Why is this
so?

My sub-report lies in the Report Footer section in my main-report. The
property of my sub-report shows Page Header: All Pages.

Why is this so? My main report already have a table in the Detail section so
I can't put my sub-report in there.

Thanks,
Dolphin

Page Headers and Footers are controlled by the main report. When you use a
report as a sub-report it has no control over the page headers and page
footers and cannot display its own.

You can get a "page header" in the subreport by adding a top-level group (use
criteria of =1) and setting its header property to true. Now, put the stuff
you want to appear as a "header" in the group and set the groups Repeat
Section property to True.
