Displaying Company Name in Header of Report Object

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

This morning I made modifications to a report and have the CompanyInformation Table #79 in the Global Variable as a Record.  Then in the Dataset I have the CompanyInformation.Name called Name_CompanyInformation.  On the report in the heading I have Name_CompanyInformation, IT WORKED.  Then I went in and modified the report again to include the column headers as text boxes for the table in the data system.  Reran the report and the Company Name is gone and I didn't touch it and I can't get it back.  If I go through the debugger after I perform the CompanyInformation.GET; I can see the CompanyInformation.Name field populated but it will not display on the report.  Is there a trick to this I don't know?

    I have found the answer myself so I will post in hope that it helps someone else.  As long as there is no data to be found for the report, the fields are not populated even in the header.  As soon as data is found the Company Name is displayed.
