how can i print what i see after i expand a drill down?

I've created a report with drill downs that are hidden initially. While viewing the report in preview, I'll expand the drill down to see the data.

If I go and print the report, the report is printed as collapsed (which is the initial setting) rather than expanded (which i expanded in the preview).

Is there a way to print in the "what-you-see-is-what-you-get" kinda way expanding and collapsing drill downs?

Thanks in advance!

Try setting the InitialToggleState to Expanded in the properties section of that Drill down columns.

Hope this helps.....

it odd, if i start out in expanded and then collapse it in the preview tab, the printing will follow along (meaning i can collapse 1 and print it as i see it), but if i start out collapse and try to expand it in the preview tab, the print doesn't follow?

anyone else have any ideas?

How can I place a value from a dataset into the page header?

Hello,

I know that I can do it through:

1. A hidden parameter

2. Report Items

The first method is not good for my report because I have another application that renders the report to a PDF.

And the second method I cannot refer more than one report item and I need to refer two items.

Is there any other method that I can use?

Thanks,

Abdel

Abdel,

I believe that those are your only options, I use the parameter trick and I'm able to export successfully to PDF. Can you state why this is failing?
