Blank pages in a report

noway

I have greated a report and have included a page break in it. The
report breaks were it is supposed to but then it creates a blank page
between the two pages. Since this report will print out approx 20
pages (without the blank pages) it is large waste of paper. I have
tested the report by setting the data source so that only one page
will print and all the data fits on page. I have checked all the
printing parameter, set the print magins and made sure that the report
fits on one page.

ANy ideas as to what I can do?

Thanks Harry

Check your page size. The fields may exceed the length of your column
(File/PrinterSetup)

Make sure your fields placement don't exceed the column width.

Hi there,

Maybe a natural page break is occurring within a line or two of your page
break control. Suggest
removing your page break control and see what happens.

Thanks, but that was the first thing that I checked. The column size
is good and is smaller that the page width.

Linda,

The does not print out any blank pages when the page break is removed.
There is group header on the report based on the field ClientNumit is
grouped on each value and keep together is set to yes. The problem is
that while most pages will seperate correctly, that is each page will
start with a new ClientNum and grouyp header, some pages will have
part of the previous page before the group header. That is why I put a
page break on the report. It solved that problem but now creates this
new one.

I'd recommend losing the page break and setting your group header's
ForceNewPage property to Before Section.

Thanks alot.
That seems to do the trick. I will have to do some more testing but I
think it will be good.

Thanks again,
Harry
