nested reports in nested reportHi, I have a report with a nested dw in a nested dw.
I would like to change som properties of both datawindows/reports (width and
moving som columns - it's a grid report)
But how do I reference the nested report. I cant use GetChild (fails as it
is not a Composite). I have managed to get the to the first report and
change the width of i with the syntax
dwobject dwo_1
dwo_1 = dw_report.Object.dw_1
dwo_1.width = 3000
But trying to get to the next level this fails, i.e. i tried
dwobject dwo_2
dwo_2 = dwo_1.Object.dw_2 // fails at runtime
Does anyone have a sugg...
Re: Nested Datawindow Report (Datawindow Printing)Does anyone know if this problem has been corrected in PB 8
or 9? Please advise. I am currently using PB 7.
Problem: In case of large text fields, PowerBuilder not
printing the Data correctly. Lines are cut in half and also
not printing last few lines . This is happening on nested
datawindow.
Here is the link to the original documentation:
http://info.sybase.com/resolution/detail.stm?id_number=10938800
Original documentation :-) states that this is not a bug but expected
behaviour, so what kind of "correction" do you expect?

Reference a datawindow object (nested report) in a datawindowIs it possible to reference a datawindow object in a datawindow?
My scenario :
I have a datawindow (composite) which holds another datawindow (nested
report).
This child datawindow has a OLE ActiveX object which I am trying to access
from the window which holds the composite datawindow.
The reason for this is because I need to access the ActiveX
properties/functions after the composite datawindow have been retrieved.
I've tried to get a reference to the child datawindow :
//DataWindowChild dwc_activex
dw1.getchild("dw_activex", dwc_activex)
But as datawi...
Problem Created Nested Report Object On Report DataWindowHi All
I'm using PB703 Build 10213.
I face a problem creating a Sub-Report Object on an existing Report Data
window.
When ever I try to do this the system crushes.
I also tried to copy an existing sub-report object from another datawindow.
In this case the system does not crush, but all columns on the main
datawindow, having a ddlb edit style, loose the ddlb information. (Even if
you define them again, when you close & reopen the datawindwo, they are
gone)!
Any help appreciated
Thanks In Advance

Nested Report (is a row in a nested report)I want to find out if there is a row in a nested report.
I tried the following statements:
dwobject ldw_report
any la_data[]
ldw_report=tabctrl.tp3.dw_preview.Object.dw_1[1]
la_data=ldw_report.Object.Data // this statement fails, if
there is no row
if UpperBound(la_data) > 0 then ...
How about:
DataWindowChild ldwc
tabctrl.tp3.dw_preview.GetChild('dw_1', ldwc)
IF ldwc.RowCount() > 0 THEN .....

Nested datawindow within a nested datawindowI have a report, that contains a datawindow, which itself contains a
datawindow. Everything is working fine until the number of retrieved lines
get's over about 1100 primary and over about 3200 retrieved nested lines.
Although the task manager (I'm using Powerbuilder 7.0.3 on Windows 2000)
shows me, that there is still enough free memory, the data retrieval stops
and Powerbuilder (or the application which called the Retrieve() method)
ends itself without any error message. That allways happens when the
datawindow has allocated about 70 MB of virtual memory. (About 99% of those

Nested report inside nested reportHas any one tried to put and populate a nested report inside
already existing nested report?
Yes, What problems are you having?
Just retreive the main report and the nested - nested
report will retrieve.

nested report in datawindowI would like to have a nested report in the trailer of a group on my
datawindow. the problem is I don't know how big the nested report will be
and there isn't a autosize on trailer bands.
Can anyone help me with how to do this?? thanks.
no, it doesn't do it for you, I suggest if the database support, try to use
store procedure to group data for display instead of using nested report!

Nested Report -> Nested Report RowCount()Hi All,
I'm nearly there, just one more thing to work out . . .
I have a composite which contains three nested reports
dw_letter -> nested_1
nested_2 -> nested_4
nested_3
I can't use GetChild because this is deeper than one level, thus I am using
dot notation
ls_user =
dw_letter.Object.nested_2.object.nested_4.object.Data[ll_current_row,ll_user
id_col]
I need to build on this to step through all the users in the nested
datawindow, thus I need to know how many rows are in there, e.g.
To do this I need something like rowcount
ll_max_rows = dw_letter....
GetChild on Nested Report that contains Nested Reports?I have a composite report that contains five nested reports. One of the
nested reports contains nested reports within it. GetChild does not work on
this NR. This was listed under the GetChild help.
Nested reports: You cannot use GetChild to get a reference to a report in a
composite DataWindow when the report itself is a composite or nested
DataWindow.
I need to get a handle to this NR so I can apply translations. Any ideas?
There are multiple rows, therefore PB doesn't know
which nested report to apply the change to.
What type of change are you doing?

Datawindow nested reportsNested reports problem. You can name them in the painter during development,
but not at run time when added
using create( ). Problem is there is no way to do a GetChild( ) for run time
added nested reports. How else are you
to manipulate and share data to a nested report on a composite datawindow?

Populating Nested ReportI have a report which contains several nested reports. Many of the nested
reports have an external data source.
I'm using pb7.0 - my question is, how do I go about populating those
nested, external reports? I understand I can't use Getchild, but have had
no luck trying to use dot notation.
Any suggestions?

nested datawindow within another nested datawindow?I was trying to create a report which has a nested datawindow within another
nested datawindow, and PB didn't seem to go for this... got memory errors.
Is this even possible? I searched all of the usual resources and couldn't
find anything about this... maybe they assumed nobody would be dumb enough
to try.
thanks,
Pat
It is perfectly legal to have multiple levels of nested reports. However,
nesting isn't supported for certain DW types like grid and n-up. Try testing
your DWs on their own to ensure that they work properly. Then nest them one
at a time and try to i...
Nested datawindow reportsIs there a way to retreive a nested report using code
without have to retrieve the parent datawindow?
Is this a DataWindow.Net question?
