I would like to make a report that has two grids/outputs on it.  How can I do this?  The report i created only has a reportHeader, labelsGroupHeader, detail, labelGroupFooter, and Footer.  The page does not seem to get any larger so I can add another little report/grid in this one report.  Any ideas?

Hi Mike,

If you need a larger page size, you can use the PageSettings property of the report, set PaperKind="Custom" and set the PaperSize according to your needs.
Generally your question is not applicable for a Reporting solution as we follow strict rules and data flow, and you cannot  create the report pages like you would create a word documenent for example. Our suggestion is to go through our help, and review Designing Reports section especially the following articles:

to get an idea of what the purpose of a reporting solution is and what it allows you to do.

Sincerely yours,

I was hoping to do soemthing like this with two reports and no charts.  This has what looks like two reports and two charts in it.

Hello Mike,

The product line sales catalog example contains two subreports and I guess this is what you look for. More info on the subreport item is available here. Steps for producting master-detail reports are available here.

Isn't a sub report part of the group label, I don't want it embeded in the first report, I have totals?  

I want Report 2 below Report 1, below the totals of Report 1.  See my example below.

Report 1
Column A    Column B
data                data
data                data
data                data
Total A         Total B

Report 2
Column A      Column B
data                data
data                data

How can I achieve this.  I am moving away from the report viewer in Microsoft, but it can do this and I would hate to stay with it because Telerik can't do the same functionality?

I created a second report and then in report 1 I put a subreport in the reportFooterSection.  How do I get Report 2 in the subreport? The ReportSource only pulls up the current report and not Report 2..... This is killing me........... :(

Hello Mike,

The answer is contained within my previous post - using subreports. The alternative of data regions in SSRS is subreports. For your exact scenario, you just need to place two subreports in the detail section of the main report, just like in the product line sales catalog (see attached screenshots). You can still have groups for each subreport which would serve as headers for your "grids".

All the best,

Steve,

I got it to work!  I just had to not rely on the designer and do it from scratch. 

Thanks!
