Hello,

I have some questions regarding generating reports using Designer/2000.

  1. Is it possible to influence visibility or position of DISPLAY TITLE (Table Details Tab)?
  2. When defining SUMMARY FUNCTION (SUM) for field and TYPE REPORT in most cases generator produces SUM on RECORD (not REPORT). Why?

And few questions regarding BREAK GROUPS:

3. When defining SUMMARY FUNCTION with TYPE: GROUP it is not possible

   to define on which BREAK GROUP to compute - generator computes at    lowest group only. Is it possible to define computing, {eg. for    amount field}, on BREAK GROUP BG1 {eg. organization) and BG2    {eg. currency).
4. If two BREAK GROUPS exist generator DOESN'T want to put fields, if

   necessary, in two rows (when just one BREAK GROUP exists or doesn't    exist at all it splits fields in two rows). Is it normal behaviour? 5. Is there any possibility to influence directly display of BREAK

   GROUPS (eg. to display in similar way like master-detail groups).

Thanks in advance for answering.
Best regards,
