Title: Conditional layout
Post by: rdq on 12 Jul 2006 06:30:22 AM
Hi to you all, guys!

Well, i'm trying to build a report that shows pages depending on a user needs. The user can choose the page/pages to be shown, from a total of 40! (for example the pages 1,5, 13 and 30). So i'm afraid the conventional conditional layout that ReportNet offers us is useless (too many conbinations).

Anyone has an idea about how to implement it?

Thanks.

Hi, it's me again!

At the end i got it! I've just created a control table containing all the possible choises an user can take, and later i built a list with that options. Inside the list, i posted as many tables as pages i wanted, each one with the output of each page that formed my report, and with the size of a D4 paper. Later on, with diferent variables (which involved all the different parameters an user can get), the tables are shown or hidden as our needs...

Hope to have been clear enough...  ;)
