Dennis,

 

A long time ago I have solved a similar problem.

The subject was an organizational structure, which of course is hierarchical

 

What I have done is the following:

Define a text column of X  length

Then develop a routine which fills this field with a sort key 

Be sure this procedure is executed at the right moment

 

Then you are able to create a report - without subreports

The nice thing is that you are even able to make a selection from one
particular node downwards.

In my example I was able to select a department and its sub departments and
so on

 

If you like to have some code please let me know I will sent it privately.

 

Tony

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Tree Report

 

I have a table 

TreeList (ID INT, ParentID INT,  TextField TEXT (80))

 

The data shows nicely in a DBTree control.

 

I'd Like to have a report print the same data in the same arrangement as
shown on the DBTree.

 

Has anyone done something like this?

 

I thought it would be easy using a view for each level driven off a variable
for the appropriate parent.

My thinking was I could drive sub-reports off the views.

 

I get the first level fine but cannot get the sub-reports to work.
