How can I repeat printing a subreport by a value

rbuser

Hi,

I am uing D6 SP2 + RB6.03. My customer want to print a strange report. The
report have two tables: SalesOrder & StockItem

SalesOrder has follow fields: SeqNo(PK), StockCode, Qty
StockItem has follow fields: StockCode(PK), Description, Price

So the SalesOrder is my master table, and the StockItem is the detail table.
And the report detail band will print the SalesOrder table, a Subreport will
print the StockItem.

What the customer want is: they want to reprint the subreport for many time
depend on the SalesOrder.Qty value. That means, if the master table Qty =
3, the subreport should print 3 times, if Qty = 0, don't print the
subreport. This is not a standard Master-Detail report, and I can not find
a way to do this. Can anyone give me some suggestion please?

Thanks!

You can reprint the detail band that the subreport is contained within
easily using the BandsPerRecord property. Here is an example which does
what you are describing:
