Section report is a legacy paginated-only format that is similar to the RDL report type with the BandedList data region in the paginated mode. ActiveReports supports two (2) kinds of Section reports:

• Xml-based Section report (RPX) is an XML-based format that uses event handlers as restricted scripts. This is your best choice if you can write code scripts.
• Code-based Section report (CodeDOM) best meets your needs if you are developer and can support the report along with the application. The Designer is available with Visual Studio only but you can perform many report operations using event handlers. In Visual Studio 2022, only .NET Framework 4.7.2 and 4.8 are supported for code-based section reports.
