Showing empty subreports

I am designing a report that contains a number of subreports. Each subreport
represents data for a particular client. I want to display the subreport even
if it is empty. How do I do this??

No can do. Subreports with no data can not be displayed.

There are some games that be played using the HasData
property, but I can't tell wginf might be asppropriate
without more details anout what you want to display.

Hi Marshal Thanks for the reply. The main form is based on a client. Each
subform is based on a query that shows information about that specific
client. Sometimes there is no information for a specific category, however,
to make the report look normal I need to have the headers show up at least
even if the subreport is empty. If you have any tricks up your sleeve that
might help me get around this issue that would be great. I hope this is
enough information for you.

Put the header information on the main report.
