    Resolved [RESOLVED] VB6 + ActiveReports 2.0 Merging Cells

    Hi experts,

    How can I merge two cells or fields in Activereports 2.0? I use VB6 and MS Access as Database. Using SQL and ADO to connect to Activereport and fill the Fields.

    Not really sure what you mean and can't make out the image.

    As far as I know you can't really merge cells but you can use grouping or you can use code to alter the display at runtime.

    Use 'Distinct Row' or 'Inner Join' with more than one table.

    P.S: I got what you mean by noticing the duplicate rows/records displayed in the report if I am not mistaken!

    Sorry if my picture make you misunderstanding. My activereport produces this:

    I would like to make the table look like this.

    This is a completely different screenshot than the first, anyway and like DataMiser said, use Grouping!

    I made a small project for you, hope it helps!
