[reportlab-users] Nesting table inside of another table cell

[William Hudspeth]

Hello,

The ReportLab User Guide suggests that one can nest complete tables
inside of another table's cells. I have built a table with a data
sequence as below:

data=[[var1,var2],[var1,var2]]
t=Table(data)

I need to build another table for each data record that displays
additional information that is associated with that record. The
additional information is derived from a separate database query
restricted to the given record. The additional information must be
displayed below each data record in a layout something like below:


Record 1
State: NM       Country:USA

ID      Weight          ID      Weight
1       14.3            5       12.5
2       11.2            6       34.5
3       23.4            7       23.1
4       11.2            8       22.9

Record 2
State: CA Country:USA

ID      Weight          ID      Weight
1       55.3            5       62.5
2       17.2            6       3.5
3       43.4            7       29.2
4       17.1            8       33.4

Any help on table nesting and layout would be appreciated...

Thanks, Bill
