I have a report working for one list (via scripted datasource). What I
need to move to now is a list within a list. I.e. I have steps that each
have results. The results for one step are coming out fine in a list
currently. I need to add an iterator for the steps (and the results
within each).

I need advice from someone on the best way to do this. E.g., is it OK to
nest a palette List within another List? Is it easier to handle this some
other way (perhaps through another scripted result set)?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mark

Have you looked at the tutorial in BIRT Developer Guide->Field Guide to
BIRT->Building a report with parallel subreports? This design may be a
little more complex than your requirements, but it should show the
techniques you need.
