Script variables can't be used for this because each report has its own script scope (this avoids the possibility of conflicting variable names).</p> <p>To pass data from a subreport back to the main report, you have to store values in subreport fields or in the subreport's <a href="C1.C1Report.4~C1.C1Report.Field~Tag.html">Tag</a> property, then have the main report read those values.</p> <p>In this sample, the subreport calculates the average unit price per product category and stores that value in its <b>Tag</b> property.
