Hi
i have a report that contains several sub reports
sub report1
sub report2
sub report3
sub report4
each sub report returns information for an area
i postioned the sub reports in the order the areas occurr
ie
sub report1
sub report2
sub report3
sub report4
problem is when i run the report the sub reports if no data available
for any of the areas
do not show on the report and thethe sub form with data on it appears
half way down the report.
how do i get the sub form containing data to appear at the top of the
report
thanks
kevin

Set the sub-report's visible property to False when there is no data for it
to display. Whilst I've not tried this method with a sub-report it
certainly works with text boxes.

Make the "Can Shrink" property of the supreport and the band (probably
Detail) "Yes" and see what that does for you.
