Sub Reports, pages and external reports

Post by doghouse »

Sub Reports, I want to make an external report my sub report, I set the property to "Use External Report = True". But then what? How do I specify which external report to use, do I need to shove in some code somewhere like in this post External Report or has this been changed?

If my sub report is quite large, can I add more pages to my sub report?

If my data has no value in the data source, it get filled with a (null) value, can this be changed to zero instead of null?

Cheers

Hello Doghouse,
Sub Reports, I want to make an external report my sub report, I set the property to "Use External Report = True". But then what? How do I specify which external report to use, do I need to shove in some code somewhere like in this post External Report or has this been changed?
Yes you need use same method.
If my sub report is quite large, can I add more pages to my sub report?
Can you explain this request in more details?
If my data has no value in the data source, it get filled with a (null) value, can this be changed to zero instead of null?
Report engine change all null values to zero by default. You can control this function with help of ConvertNulls property of StiReport.

Thank you.
