How to change detail section height dynamically in CR

[Jerish]

Hi all,

I am getting some problem in detail section while displaying imagedata type field(SQL Server)in Crystal report. What I want exactly is, detail section should change dynamically based on image size. But all the record in detail sections are of same size. Is there anyway to remove the empty spaces between the images . I would appreciate your help.

I am using Crystal report 8 developer edition .
Front end as VB and back end as SQL server2000

Thanks in advance.
Regards
Jerish

Have you tried narrowing your field and detail section and setting both to "can grow"?

Hi Lisa,

Thanks for your quick response.

I have already tried this. But that couldn't fix the problem

The image size is fixed at design time - it only works well if all the images are the same size.
You're using VB so you get the format event from the detail section at run time. You can change the detail size at this point, but I'm not sure you can change the size of the graphic as there is only one graphic object in the rpt.
