I was wondering if there was some way to use a field to replicate a data row.

For example I would like to take data like this.. And have an output in the report like this...
I'm having to do this with hundreds of rows by insert - paste in excel and would like not to have to do this.

Thanks.

Hello,

You can use master-detail reports. Place two databands on page. Set MasterComponent of second databand to first databand. In BeforePrintEvent of first databand write following code:
Thank you.

Vital,

Thanks for the answer. Maybe I'm not doing it correctly but I can't seem to get it to work.

I have one datasource table "S" with these three fields in them.

Plot Name Rep


Both databands refer to "S"

If DataBand1 contains the print fields I just a get the same line repeated over and over again until I stop it.

If Databand2 has the print fields I get all of the data repeated over and over again until I stop it.

Is there a circular loop in the logic if I refer both bands to the same source which is causing the repeat to infinity?

I have not used the Master Detail functionality yet so I am unsure of it's requirements. The demo guide uses several datasources.

Please refer only First DataBand to "S" datasource.

DataBand2.MasterComponent = DataBand1

Also please set DataBand1.PrintIfDetailEmpty = true;

DataBand1.Height = 0;

Please open the attached report in the Demo.exe example application.

Thank you.

Thank you,

Now it works perfectly

Please let us know if any help is required.
