Hi Guys,
 
I'm using a formula to drive my page header so that, despite the subreport, the page header remains the same.
 
The formula is
 
WhileReadingRecords;
""
 
I've also inserted on the page header section suppression logic. The formula is
If not inrepeatedgroupheader then false else true.
 
I've inserted this to the top most group of my subreports and checked off repeat header. Initially this was working perfectly and for whatever reason, now it's not. If, for example, a subreport gets pushed to another page the header is simply blank.
 
Any thoughts? Much appreciated!

an added note... on the main report, I haven't selected "repeat group headers". I wasn't sure if i needed to do this on the main report level; it's only been done on the subreport level.
 
Thanks,
Brandon

Hi, bpmcnary.

I have some questions for clarification purposes before I can answer.

First, when you say you inserted the page header section suppression logic, was that entered in the Section Expert: Suppress (No Drill-down) formula section? I ask because all you would enter there is when you want it suppressed.

Second, can you describe the layout a bit more? Do you have multiple subreports within your main report? The page header you are wanting to display/suppress, is that on each of the subreports or on the main report? I'm just trying to visualize how your report is laid out.
