Abstract
Architecture which provides that certain data-bound objects in the report can be configured by the report author to use data from a specific query result rather than take data from the containing data bound object. The report author defines a relationship between the data in the contained object and the data in the container, allowing instances of the descendant object to be correlated with instances of the ancestor object. This relationship can be either explicit with join conditions or implicit due to an intrinsic hierarchical relationship between the query results.
