Returns the current report's Sections collection.
val% = [form!]VSReport.Sections
The Sections collection contains all Section objects defined in the current report. The collection has the following methods and properties:
|
Item |
Returns a Section object, indexed by section type. |
|
Count |
Returns a count of all Section objects in the collection. |
Note that the Sections collection does not have Add or Remove methods. The number of sections in a report is determined by the number of Groups. Every report has five "fixed" sections (detail, report header, report footer, page header, and page footer) plus two sections per group (a group header and a group footer). The table below shows the relationship between the sections and groups for a typical report:
