I need to make my subreport have a border so it appears as a box on the main report.
It seems pretty straightforward.
In the Designer Window, the border shows as expected.
However, when I print the report there is no border around the subreport.

Hi @ltussing03 My first thought would be to specify a width for the border, otherwise maybe it can work to put the subreport in the panel?
Ben,
Thanks as always for the reply.
I have a border width as shown in the image.
I also tried putting a report border within the subreport itself. This did not work either.
I’m not sure what you mean by putting the subreport in a panel.
Thanks!
@ltussing03 A Panel is a report object, like subreport or text field:
I put one in the panel and gave them border color and width and it didn’t seem to work until I defined a Border Style...so maybe it doesn’t need to be in a panel just the style defined, but i got it to work using the panel option:
Thanks Benjamin!
Well at least I know this can work.
I have a style and everything else I can see defined.
You can see it in my original image.
When I select panel at the top of the properties, it shows all the same settings I have displayed for the subreport related to borders.
Any thoughts of what I am missing?
@ltussing03 It might be that it is not supported, I tested it and couldn’t get it to work with the subreport object, but the borders can still be brought in via the subreport, otherwise the panel is the best option I think.
