Hi Gunner,

 

Here is my original question:

 

"I would like to display a report with four slave tables and four sub-reports.  
My slave tables are actually temporary views that are created before the report 
generates.   I am only able to get one sub-report to display.  I am using the 
child option, and I have them shifting relative to the report in front of it.  
Currently all the reports are in the detail band of my main report.  I have 
tried moving them each to a band of their own and then making them section 
reports and that didn't work either.  

 

Is there some sort of settings - like with the forms - where you can set your 
table settings, such as one to one or one to many?   For a report, does the 
slave tables have to have a column in common with the main table for items to 
display?   "

 

I am not sure what I am missing because the slave views do have a common column 
name with the master table.  All data is pulled according to the coordinator, 
so the coordinator ID is common in all the information that is being pulled.  
So I must have something that I'm missing with a setting somewhere because 
there is data in my views.  

 

It seems like it should be so simple to me so I am overlooking and/or over 
thinking something where these sub-reports are concerned.

        I think that I must be missing something else.  I have tried every 
which way I can think of to get these reports to show.  Only one of the 
sub-reports will show.  Nothing seems to be working and I am at a loss as where 
to go next.  I have looked at the pdf and the help and the examples, but 
unfortunately I am still missing something.

         

        Thank you all for you help and suggestions.  I'll keep pecking away at 
it and maybe I'll stumble on what is wrong.  J

         

        Thanks,

        I tend to agree with Dennis and Dan. For a temp table there is no need.

        However if you really think there is a need dont create a temp table, 
create a semi temp perment table, then you have all the possibiltes.

        What I mean with a semi temp permanet table is a table that is perment 
from R:Base point of view but temp from application point of view.

        I use that sometimes when I need to make an ODBC query from Excel and 
that works for me, then it have to perment ro able to read over ODBC but it is 
realyy temp since I drop it as soon I am finished.

        If you are in a multiuser enviroment then you maybee need to be clever 
to name the semi temp permanet table like including the username in the 
tablename

                Hi Dan,

                 

                I've tried to create a temp table and link one of the columns 
to my main table.  I am using the following code:

                 

                ALTER TABLE `TSUBEA` ADD FOREIGN KEY +

                (`CaseManager` ) REFERENCES `Security`

                 

                I am receiving an error message that the referenced table 
doesn't exist.   Do you have to do something special when trying to add a 
foreign key to a temp table?

                 

                Thank you,

                Jennifer

                I just did a report with a dummy master table and six tables as 
sub-reports. None of the columns had a relationship to each other.

                 

                I had to have a linking table between the master table and the 
slave tables. Since I was creating temp tables, I just used a bogus column in 
all the tables and put a value in it to link them. Without the linking column 
it does not work.

                 

                When I created the temp table I made sure that no table had a 
linking column to each other or the master except the bogus column.
