How do I get a subreport out of its main report?

Asked by geekboysteves in Crystal Reports Software

Tags: subreport, crystal, report

I need the reverse operation of “import subreport” [into main report].

I designed a nice, stand-alone report and later imported it into a new report as a subreport.  The stand-alone version is no longer required and the subreport is just fine if edited through the main report (by right-clicking on the subreport and selecting “edit subreport”).  However, the subreport’s original .rpt file does not reflect any of the numerous changes made to it as a subreport.  It’s as if Crystal Reports imported a copy and embedded it in the main report and then never saved changes back out to the subreport’s source file.

This is causing problems with SourceSafe and copying projects from one PC to another.

Question: How do you get subreports out of a main report?

Thanks!
