[SOLVED - NFR] InfoAssist multi page report and multi SQL synonym
I have an old report that I need to recreate in an InfoAssist document. This report 4 tabular reports and 2 graphs. It uses several different sql synonyms/masterfiles. The current report is on several pages. There is no way I can squeeze all this in one page.

I have created 2 of the tabular and 1 of the graph reports, but I am stuck on one page. I can't find a way to create another page for the other reports. The only way I can cause a page to break is to specify a BY field and tell it to break there. But what I need is another blank page to put the other reports.

Also, I can't find a way to insert a new chart or graph and point it to a different masterfile. Looks like to me, I am stuck with using only one masterfile per document on InfoAssist.

Is something what I am trying to do even possible in InfoAssisst? I've been reading the Help documentation (blue ? button on upper right) but can't find the answers to my questions.

Please help! Thanks in advance.

You can only create 1 page layout in InfoAssist. At runtime, the reports and charts can generate multiple output pages though.

In Compose View, you can use trhe Insert menu to insert reports, charts, text objects and images. Use the Switch Datasource button to select different databases for the report and chart components.
