Here's an idea of how my report is set up. I have a main report with a page header, and a subreport in the body. This runs a second report which has 4 tables, the 4th of which has a subreport in the detail section that runs the third report. My problem is with page breaks. I can't seem to control them at all. I have all my page layout's set at 11w 8.5h. It renders perfectly on screen but when I export to any of the formats, it goes crazy with the page breaks.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Karen

Really has nothing to do with subreports, per se. In my experience with this issue (and trust me, I've been 'round and 'round), I've chosen to do the following:
1) if you must export to another format, use the html one. Then, when a use opens it, they can set print paramters...still not pretty...
2) what I finally ended up doing to control pagination was pull the report via a web frame interface. For most of my reports, the end users must enter certain criterion and then run the report. (ex--date range...so my web frame interface has a calendar control)....by putting it in another frame, I've been able to circumvent some of the printing/pagination issues with my own code.
Someone else might have a better way for you though! I'm working on migrating to 2005, so I'm crossing my fingers that this issue will be resolved in the newer version.
