  • 1.  Page Break - Master Detail Relationship

    Posted Thu February 20, 2020 10:40 AM

    ​I have one page that contains 5 reports.  I have the Page Break/Master Detail Relationship based on a Code.
    All works perfect.  My question is, when I export this as Excel Format, each tab/page break using the 'Code', but I want to show the Name related to the Code.  How can I do this without creating the Page Break on the name?

    Thanks,
    Jen

    It doesn't look possible to have name with other column other than used for page break without creating additional page break.. you may want to check Page set properties to see if changing references to name there give the required results.

    If I add the 'Name' to the Grouping on the Page Set then I do get the Code, Name on the tabs in excel.  That will work for my needs.​

    @Peter Hess​​

    Under the 'Report Pages' section I added the 'Name Field' to the grouping.  For example:
    Page set ---> Branch
    Group ----------> Branch
    Group -------------> Branch Name
                                    -> Detail Page
                                         -> Page1
