Hi, I am divya and need help regarding Header freeze in Compound HTML report without using HTMTABLE.

I dont want to use HTMTABLE because it has a limit on data handling,And now we need to freeze the header for a compound report.
HFREEZE = TOP works for individual sections of a report, But it fails to freeze the Header, and freezes only the column titles, Any solution for this?

HFREEZE is not supported for either HTMTABLE or compound reports.

Is it possible to concatenate the datasets?

Since you want to freeze the header and column titles I assume the contents are similar enough to concatenate? ( use: MORE )

Save in a HOLD and report over that.
In this way you have only one dataset... ...no need to compound... ...Freeze should work.

Hi Dave, Sorry for the late reply...

You didnt understand the scenario actually. I have many sections of data in my report which is displayed using compound report format using HTMTABLE. If I do this, I can freeze the header easily, But freezing header without HTMTABLE in a compound report is challenging.

Meanwhile, we worked on something like this, We took the header part, put it into a HTMTABLE and freezeed the header part, and took all other report sections and frezzed the column titles using HFREEZE, Now both Header Freeze and column title freeze works,But when I scroll the report, the report goes over the Header and Header gets covered,which is freezed. And this is not the required output.

Either report scrolling should be stopped beneath the header........Or I dont want an Overlap when I scroll the reports over the Header.. Hope I much clear now.

Your description of this report gives me the idea it is meant to be displayed on screen.

If I am correct I would suggest you should not create a compound report but an HTML file

If you do use the HTML painter you can solf this matter
In fact you create an HTML page with some start buttons and one or more Iframes.
Each I fram can hold a graph or a small report.
And if you create a report with the option HFREEZE=ON it will act in the Iframe as it should.

In my opinion a compound report is a bit different.

Did you get some basic traning on this?
Developer Studio gives you the ability to paint the report as you like, with the frames on the proper place.
