Having problem in rendering subreport existing in group footer

Question

Hi,

I have to fix a report designed by Acive report and I am fairly new to this. The problem occurs after converting this report from frame work 1 to 2 .Nothing is changed but sub report showing the total count does not show up. I have a main report(RptReport.vb) having a group containg 6 subreports in its footer(GrpFooter). It Has:

Report Header Page header GrpPageNumbering Application's Icon Report Name and.... GrpTotal Detail GrpTotalFooter subLevel5 subLevel4 subLevel3 subLevel2 subLevel1 subLevelSubTotal GrpPageNumberingFooter PageFooter ReportFooter RptSubReport.vb is the subreport which is designed to be used in all of these 6 subreports. It has GrpTitle It contains the deign of titles grpHeader grpAlternate detail grpfooterAlternate It contains the field that should be shown up grpFooter It contains the total sum GrpTitlefooter

For subLevel1 to subLevel5 grpfooterAlternate.visible = true and grpFooter.visible = false and For subLevelSubTotal grpfooterAlternate.visible = False and and grpFooter.visible = true This sets dynamically.

When i run the report with different criterira I get different results. Some times grpFooter in sub report show up and sometimes it doesn't. I guess it depends on the amount of data showing up in the previous subreports. It is good to mention that this report used to work correctly but after coversion from framework one to 2, This problem occurs. I debugged the cases that total sub report show up and the cases that it does not . Both goes through the same events.

Any Body had an idea? I appretiate your help.

Thanks,

merryca,

I don't believe there is any dependency on FW on rendering of reports. That being said, is it possible that you can send us a project that will help us understand what is going on here. Trying to debug the issue based on your explanation is little bit difficult.

Please email [email protected] and we will get you some help immediately.
