Add defendant

I have a table in my report that shows cases, that are grouped by Court and
Case. Each case can have one or more defendants. How do I add the defendant
data to the table?
In other words, how do I add a sub-table in my current table and link by
Court and Case?HI,
The best way to me seems that you need a one-to-many relationship here. I
say one-to-many, as it seems unlikely that a defendant would me involved in
multiple cases. If so then you need to have a many-to-many n:n
Create a defendants table, with a foreign key. THe foreign key would then
contain the case key, thereby giveing one case the ability to have one or
more defendants. All thats left is to do the proper relation.

When I said table I mean the report table, the object off the toolbox. I
want the report table to show multiple defendants per case.

I understand that you'd like to show cases and their defendants in one
report. If I'm off-base, please let me know.
Generally you shall use a query with inner join in dataset so that you
could list this informaiton in one report.
For example:
cases table: caseid, casename
casedefendants table: caseid, defendant
select cases.caseid, cases.name, casedefendants.defendant from cases inner
join casedefendants on cases.caseid=casedefendants.caseid
The report shall be sth like:
caseid casename defendant
1 case1 def1
1 case1 def2
2 case2 def3
2 case2 def4
If this does not meet your requirement, please feel free to let's know.
Thank you.

Add Blank Page

I have a report that is grouped by employee. The report lists the
training each employee has taken. What I want to do is have a page
with just the employee's name and some lines that can be used for
writing comments to print after the last page of data for the employee
is displayed. So, if page 1 and page 2 have employee training data,
page 3 will just have the employee's name and than a bunch of blank
lines.
Any help is appreciated.

One way of doing it is to add a table control at the bottom of the
report and have the employee's name as the detail record. Then right-
click the top-left corner of the table control >> select Properties >>
select the General tab >> below 'Page breaks:' select 'Insert a page
break after this table.' Hope this helps.

Thank you for your reply Enrique
When I add the table to my report, it ends up printing after all of
the employees have printed. What I want to happen is:
Page 1 = employee one detail records
Page 2 = employee one detail records
Page 3 = employee one detail records
Page 4 = notes page for employee one
Page 5 = employee two detail records
Page 6 = employee two detail records
Page 7 = notes page for employee two
The notes page will just have the employees name and than a bunch of
lines for note writing.
Thanks for any help. Mark.|||On Nov 13, 12:30 pm, Mark <mark...@.gmail.com> wrote:

You're welcome. The best way to control this is to pass the dataset
into the report in the format that you want to display it in. I'm not
sure how you would have a page break in this scenario though (aside
from possibly passing in empty records). Otherwise, you can underline
the field by: selecting the table row on the left >> right-click and
select Properties >> in the Properties tab, select BorderStyle >>
select the Drop-down list to the right of Bottom >> select
<Expression...> and enter something like:
=iif(Fields!ExtraColumn.Value = "Notes", "Solid", "None")
Where ExtraColumn is just that, set to either something like:
"Details" or "Notes". So in this expression if the extra field ="Notes", then set the bottom border to solid, else set it to none (or
invisible). Hope this helps.
