Hi Mauro,

The new feature allows you to access the main report's objects from the
subreport. This prevents the need to create global properties to alter
components in the main report from a subreport.

Example:

Assume you have a variable in your main report's footer band named
"Variable1". Inside the code workspace of a subreport, you can access
the variable's value directly using the Variable1 name.

Variable1.Value := X;

rbuser

Only subreport -> Main report

or

Sub-SubReport2 -> SubReport1 ?

This will work for all parent reports.

Sub-Subreport2 can access components in Subreport1 and the main report.
