Dynamic placement and font siz of sub-reports

[Joseph Greenberg]

I have a report that has a text field that is set to CanGrow. I would like a
subreport (which is also set to CanGrow) which appears below it to move
vertically based on the size of the top text field in the main report. The
catch is that my detail area is NOT set to CanGrow (it's a label, so I don't
want it to grow beyond the default setting). Anybody have any idea how to
dynamically position a subreport?

Also, is it possible to dynamically set font size for all the fields in a
subreport if the height of the report extends past the height of the detail
area (which is not set to CanGrow)?

Have you considered moving the field from the main report to a group header
in the subreport? Then you can let them grow together.

I have two supreports, one on top of the other, so I don't think this will
work. However, I did get the placement right finally, and correct cangrow
and canshrink for all the elements, so it's working for me. thanks though.

I'm not sure why my suggestion is affected by two subreports. However, glad
to hear you got it working.
