Forcing subreports to print

C

Carl Rapson

Is there any way to 'force' a subreport to print, even if there is no data?
I have a report that contains several subreports, and I would like to print
the headers from each subreport, even if there are no data records to print.
Is there any way to do this?

Thanks for any information,

No, you can not make an empty subreport display anything.

What you can do is place a copy of the headers in a label or
text box on the main report in the same place as the
subreport. Then use a little code in the Format event of
the section containing the subreport:

Me.txtHeader.Visible = Not Me.subreport.Report.HasData

Thanks again, Marshall. I should have known that one.
