Subforms: Dynamic column header texts are NOT displayed

[Former Member]

I have 2 subforms for a table as header(columns) and body(rows).

During overflow of data into the next page, column headers are displayed along with the body rows.

Problem is, only the static texts(as column headers) are displayed NOT the texts which am bringing dynamically to column headers.

Would appreciate any help regarding this issue. Thanks.

I have done the below Design settings:

Parameter	Column(header)	Row(body)
Accessibility	Headerrow	Bodyrow
Object->subform	Positioned	Flowed(Checkbox 'Allow page break within content' is active)
Object->Pagination->Overflow leader	-	< Column Subform name>
Object->Binding	Bound to table's column data	Bound to table's row data

HI Swami,

Have you set the Subform for body (rows) properties as flowed or positioned. Please make sure its flowed.

Let me know if you already have done that.

Reward if you find it useful..

Nitin:

Thanks for the msg.

Yes i did that setting. I've mentioned in my query all the design settings i did in LCD.

Please let know if any other parameter is missing. Thanks again.

Let me understand the problem properly:

Lets say your form behaves in this way:

Is this is the way you want your output to be.

Page 1

Header:   Col1_page1   Col2_page1 (let's suppose page1 is the dynamic field you are bringing)

Item:       Ite1_page1    Ite2_page1

|

|

|

Page 2

Header:   Col1_page2   Col2_page2 (let's suppose page2 is the dynamic field you are bringing)

Item:       Ite1_page2    Ite2_page2

And you actually are getting like this

Header:   Col1_page1   Col2_page1 (let's suppose page1 is the dynamic field you are bringing)

Item:       Ite1_page1    Ite2_page1

|

|

|

Page 2

Header:   Col1_            Col2_

Item:       Ite1_page2    Ite2_page2

If yes, I would like to know how have you binded the dynamic field with column headers.

Have you checked the checkbox Repeat Subform or Each Data Item

Have you also checked min count and given it as 1.

Required Output:

Col1_text(static)     Col2_text(dynamic)     Col3_text(dynamic)

row1_data               row1_data                 row1_data

row2_data               row2_data                 row2_data

Above output is required in page1,2,3...n. But in my output, only in page1 all the static & dynamic column headers(text) are displayed. From Page2,3...i could see only the static text(in above case onlyCol1_text) NOT the dynamic header texts.

Yes, I did the settings you hav mentioned, for BODY subform (hope this is not applicable for header subform). Thanks.

Also, I suggest you that if you already have done the above settings, then you can try this solution:

Create a Row for Column Headers and keep that in Master Page and in design view you can display your item subform after the header row (deifned in master page).

Let me know if you need more help.

Thanks,

Nitin.

Nitin:

I think there is no problem with Placing of subforms since am getting the output in Page 1 as required.

Problem is only from Page2,3,..etc and that too only with dynamic texts while header row is displayed with static texts.

[Former Member]

Swami, there might be a chance where when you have declared the Overflow Leader (as Header Row), the form is considering it as static text and hence bringing the static part only to page 2 onwards.

Sorry could not help you further, but anyways I am also going to try on this. I will let you know if i find a solution to this.

You are right exactly. I think the same.

You know, it worked for me in sandbox system but when i copied(manually) the changes to Dev and tested in Q, now i face this problem. Quite surprising..!

I lost that sandbox pgm too due to some other reason but am 99% sure(missed 1% somewhere;)) the changes i made in Dev is exactly same as sandbox.

Anyways, appreciate your help. Thanks
