Hi all,

 

Hope someone can give me a hand here :( .

 

I need to create an application for work in which I will require report/document printing. For this reason I would like to use Crystal Reports in .NET. However after looking at CR I am not sure whether it can format the report/document in the way I need.

 

For example, I currently have a paper document like the following which I need to replicate on screen, only instead of the data being written on the form, it is extracted from the database...

 

--------------------------------------

Project Number: 12345

Project Title: Test Project

 

Project Participants;

Role Organisation

Client A Company Ltd

Promoter B Company Ltd

Engineer C Company Ltd

 

Contracting Name: My Company Ltd

 

--------------------------------------

 

...However I tried doing this in CR but I can't work out how to get it to format in this way as the details section iterates giving me...

 

--------------------------------------

Project Number: 12345

Project Title: Test Project

 

Project Participants;

Role Organisation

Client A Company Ltd

 

Contracting Name: My Company Ltd

 

Project Number: 12345

Project Title: Test Project

 

Project Participants;

Role Organisation

Promoter B Company Ltd

 

Contracting Name: My Company Ltd

 

Project Number: 12345

Project Title: Test Project

 

Project Participants;

Role Organisation

Engineer C Company Ltd

 

Contracting Name: My Company Ltd

 

--------------------------------------

 

All I need to do is get a report to go....

 

single values

 

List of values

 

Single Values

 

List of values

 

etc...

 

 

Hope someone can point me in the right direction :(

 

Thanks!!

 

Lee.

As long as the project Participants have a link back to the project then you should be able to do this be adding a group for the Project Number.

 

Group Header would print the number and title

Details would print the Participants

Group Footer would print the contracting name.
