In Sesame can a report contain different field layouts.  Lets say the first record contained Residential Property Information, the fields that would display would be # bedrooms, # bathrooms.  Then if the next record to be printed was an Industrial Property it would display # Grade Doors, # Dock Doors but not display bed/bathrooms. 

Can this be done

Thanks,
Chris

Short answer: yes.

Long answer: In a table view report the report would need to be carefully massaged so as not to be too confusing, given that LEs are labeled using columns headers. Using a freeform report and a bit of report programming, it shouldn't be a problem to relabel and selectively print individual LEs based on the value of a different LE.

With some programming, 1.1.2 will get pretty close, if not dead on. 1.1.3 and 2.0 both have a new construct that will eliminate most of the programming needed.
