Hello,

Is there a way to combine 2 different types of reports - "Compound PDF Report" and "Compound Layout Report"??

I couldn't find an answer to this anywhere, but when I tried to combine them, only the "Compound Layout Report" part would show up and that too with incorrect results..

Thanks!

I would say yes : make them both the same format either PDF or Layout.

The output format for both is PDF, but it still does not work when I combine the pdf pages created by these 2 different styles..

They run fine individually, i.e. Compound PDF report & Compound Layout report individually..

If you can't change them to the same compound type, then you could use a third part utility to combine the two PDF's.

I've used PDFBox (I think that is what it was called) before with success.

Pity the lost knowledge of an old programmer!
