I have a jrxml file containing six subreports.
I need to programatically hide the columns displayed in these subreports.
I did search for a solution, but could not find a example for modifying the columns in subreports and I am unable to find a way with jasper API to pick the subreport from JasperReport class.
I did check dynamicreports API. But it seems subreport can't already have columns defined in it.

I am creating a Jasper report via Jaspersoft Studio 6
I am using the following property to export my report into two separate Excel sheets (tabs): net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.break.after.row
My report consists of two tables, one table per sheet. So far, I have no issue creating this report.
However, I would also like to implement an excel auto filter on each table header using the following property: net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.auto.filter
I added the auto filter property to both table headers, with a start and end on both. But when I run the report, the filter only displays on my last table (the one on the second sheet). I imagine this may happen because in Excel, you are only allowed one autofilter per sheet.
How may I put an autofilter on BOTH tables of a jaspersoft .xlsx report output?
In my main report I have some fields which I need to use in my subreport.
Right now I'm loading one csv file in both the main and the sub reports, but this seems to slow down the preview of my reports (I need these reports in a program). Eve if I use the preview in Crystal Reporst, it loads 3 times the same database, so I was thinking about linking the fields.
So I do Right Click on Subreport -> Change Subreport Links... and then I put the fields I want on the right side of the shown table. But when I do a preview of the whole report, in the subreport it shows only the first line and not all the values inside.
How do I manage to make the subreport show all the values of the fields?
It should be very simple and should employ multi-value parameters , but not able to figure out how ? This report takes parameters from the GridView I have a gridview in an asp.net web page which has print button for every row to print this report for that row.
Now, there are as many reports as there are rows in the grid.---[This part is done]
So,how about combining all these reports into one single report
You can add a subreport for each one of you reports.
You just create a new report and start inserting subreports in each row.
Check this documentation:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd220581.aspx
Here's an example for you:
1 - Create a new report. You can then add a tablix to it, in case you have more info, which is the case in my example. Just don't forget to add a dataset to that tablix if that's your case.
This is how it would look
Each gray line is a subreport.
2 - To insert a subreport just right-click a cell and go to Insert > Subreport
3 - Right-click your subreport, select Subreport Properties and choose your report from the drop-down menu:
4 - You can then set the parameters your subreport will receive:
Case 2: if you don't need a tablix for aditional info, just repeat the same process in a Rectangle.
UPDATE
As I said in my comment, here's one report in which I do exactly what you want:
As you can see the subreports are part of the main report's body that has other data.
I need to repeat these subreports for each record and that's how it is done.
Here you can see the Id being passed as parameter to my subreport:
From what I understood, that's what you want. That way for each record its current Id would be passed to the report. Generating a report with that "dynamic" parameter you mentioned.
I would like to create a kind of master report, with 2 sections. The first will contains a subreport that will always be the same. The other section will contain a subreport that would be loaded with differents .rpt files, depending on some business rules.
I tried to use something like:
report.Subreport["subReportName"].Load("path to desired .rpt")
But Crystal return an error saying it is an invalid operation. There is another way to do that?!
Have the main report load all the subreports all the time, but only display the one you want conditionally.
Hide the subreports you don't want conditionally, in other words.
I can able to create Excel document using Jasper Report but the problem is that fields are not properly aligned in the cells of excel sheet and all the data are populated in the plain surface without any cells.i.e) I cannot see any cells in the data populated area.Can u please give me suggestion to make proper Excel document with cell alignment.
I had this same struggle and came up with the following. At the time, I was using iReport (3.0.0) and was able to generate a good xls file. It may be easier in newer versions of iReport and/or JasperReports. Here's what I did:
I created a new report using the new report wizard and chose a tabular template. This creates a report with all of the fields in a line with no gaps between them. It is very key that fields are vertically aligned, that all the same height, and that there are no gaps between fields.
I removed all of the extra objects created (title, extra lines) except for the fields and the headers. I then collapsed all of the bands except the column header and detail bands.
On the report properties, I checked "Ignore pagination"
I changed the text color of the header fields, otherwise it ends up as white on white.
The rest of the important options can be found by selecting Options -> Export Options from the menu and then scrolling down to the "XLS Exporter" section. I attached a screen shot of the options I chose. You can experiment with the settings, but I found (through trial and error) that the options I ended up with work pretty well. These options are not stored in the report def file, they are attributes of the thing generating the report. iReport takes care of it when testing in that environment. We are using custom Java to generate the report in production and we set the attributes there.
