In a report script, does anyone know if there is a way to force print an
specific layout.I am printing layout detail.1: then detail.2: and need
to do go back and reprint detail.1: again, till in detail.2:
reach an statment and do not go back to detail.1:. (layout.again() does not good for this one, it is for the same layout.)

Thanks,

Carlos

Nope - never done this. You could probably put the report in debug mode to see what the call to the detail.1 layout is - then just use a call to that. Not sure about what it would do as far as calling detail.2, but this is something you could try.

You have to do control this outside the reportscript in the program script. Then you can control what detail will be printed by special vars (this don't need to be/have to be tablefields!). Remember: every time you send a rprt_send() or brp.ready() you create a new line in the report output. This don't must be a new record in your table! I've often use this. It's a bit tricky, but it works fine.

csecgn and Mark,

Thanks for your input....

I know will be easier do it in the Program Script. The problem with this report is that it is a very complex layout in Jetform where all formatting has been handled in the report script and in the layout itself. Since I can't add more than 20 lines by layout detail I have to use a second detail layout to fit more values. The layout detail.1 is it has a loop it prints (layout.again()) as many times need. So my second layout detail.2 is printed after detail.1 finishes its looping. I want to loop between both layouts detail.1 then deatil.2 and come back to layout detail.1 till detail.2 reaches the number of loops.

I did try the "goto detail.1"(thanks Mark) which compiled in debug it is what it makes layout.again() reprint the layout. But the report script doesn't compile "Unknown Label" as an error message.

Thanks again.
