How do you display headers onto multiple pages (2 questions)

[edoherty]

2 questions:
How do you display a header onto multiple pages for a grouping in a subreport that spans multiple pages?
How do you display a Page Header onto multiple pages for a single cross-tab of a master report (opposed to a subreport) that spans multiple pages?


Thx in advance!

1)You can turn on the Repeat Group Header on Each Page for groups (right click the group, select change group and check the box near the bottom).

2)The page header should show for multiple pages, what are you expecting and what are you getting?

Thx for the prompt response!
The cross-tab contains a column for each Retail Week and spans over 3 pages. If you execute the report in the Cyrstal Reports editor, you scroll to the right 3 pages to view the entire cross-tab. When you export the report to a .pdf file the cross-tab is cut into 3 parts and displayed on 3 pages. But the page # only displays on the 1st page, displaying "Page 1 of 1" for the Page N of M and the Page Header is only displayed on the 1st page.

These virtual pages for wide cross-tabs are considered part of page 1, it is just a wide page 1.

Unfortunately, if you want them treated as separate pages your only choice is to group your report so that each each group contains a limited number of values for cross-tab columns, and then put the cross-tab in the Group Header. That way they will follow each other rather than extending horizontally. Of course you won't get a grand total column Ken Hamady, On-site Custom Crystal Reports Training & Consulting
