I know this question has been asked many times, but I'm not finding a good resolution.
I am working in SSRS 2008R2. My report contains 3 subreports, each with their own header. Individually, the subreports perform as expected and appear good.
However, once they are included in the main report, the page breaks are ignored and the data for all groups displayed in one mass of data. This is totally unacceptable for obvious reasons. Fortunately, two fo the subreports have no page break needs, but the details display 18 pages instead of one for each Batch.
since the report is routinely run multiple times each day and for multiple grops (40-50 per run) this creates a logistical nightmare.
Reading previous posts on this subject (which mostly referred to 2008 and the fact that 2005 allowed such behaviour) I've seen the standard repsonse "this is by design".
I cannot think of a situation where this would be true. I cannot bring the subreport into the main report as it screws up the headers. With a varying number of pages within each subreport there is no way to determine the active page (PageName) hasn't worked for this purpose) for dynamic header information and dynamic images. To be able to properly handle the dynamic header info issue, the decision was made to use subreports.
Has anyone found a way around this problem? This hould have been simple, and in 2005 it would have ben easy.
I am open to suggestions, as long as it's not the suggestion that this is a design feature.
Thanks!
