I need to know how to use a sub report to display the 3 ( three ) latest, ( newest by date) notes field. It is a memo field, the main report is also based on client id. So is the sub report, it displays ALL records.

the next thing that I would try, and I don't know off the top of my head what the CR commands would be (I don't know if memo fields would be different) but, I would create a shared stringvar and just append the 3 comments to it (formatting with a crlf) and then have the main report display them.
