using reports

[william humphrey]

I'm trying to make a printed manifest. It has a header from three or four
tables and then down below it has rows of data that are from another three
or four tables. If I build it in RunRev I just make individual SQL calls for
each element, or sections of elements, store them in arrays or listso of
text and put those in different places on the RunRev card as I need them. If
something is missing I just do another SQL to get the missing field and put
it in.
The reports feature of Valentina Pro seems to require just one SQL to get
every data field you need. I would like to at least divide it into two SQL,
one for the header (which doesn't repeat down the page) and one for the
repeating elements.
