Multi Column Subreport

Hi,

I am trying to use a multi column report as a subreport. I want to know how can I do it without loosing multi column.

Thanks,

-Rohit

Can you be a bit more specific? Have tried something already and not got the expected behaviour? What exactly are you trying to do?|||

I have these reports which I am running separately. One of them is a multi column report also. I want to put together all these reports in one report, for that I am using these reports as subreports.

The problem I am facing is, when I use multicolumn reports as subreport, I loose the multicolumn part of it. All the data come as one single column. I am using Rectangle to hold the subreports. May be I am not doing it wrong.

Can you please help me, how can I bind all my individual reports into one single report and not loose any formatting (i.e.multicolumn and page size)?

Thanks a lot,

-Rohit

|||I'm still not sure what you mean by multicolumn subreport. Are you using a table or a matrix in the subreport?|||

You know how there are multi column reports (news paper style)... the same way I have one of those multi column report. But I want to use that report in another report. I am useing "subreport" feature for this. But the problem is when I use that multi column (news paper style) report in the main report, I loose the multi column from the report. All the data comes in one single column. So my question is how can I use my multi column report in another report without loosing multiple columns ability.

Thank You,

Hi,

I am having exactly the same issue. Did you ever find a resolution to this problem? Are you using SQL Server 2005 and VS 2005?

Thanks,

Hi Amy,

I am also facing the same problem and it seems that we cannot have multiple column sub reports.

Dear Ashish,

I finally broke down and called Microsoft and they confirmed this as well. Fortunately they have a money back guarentee on service calls if they are unable to provide a solution so at least it didn't cost the company any money.

Thanks for your help!
