Sub Report CANNOT GROW!!!
Sub Report CANNOT GROW!!!
(OP)
Ok, here is what I'm trying to do. The goal of this crystal report is to reproduce the paperwork for Canadian Custom Invoices.
I have a report that contains:
a Group Header A
a Group Header B
and a Group Header C
Group Header A (form header) is always 5 inches and must appear at the top of each page. No problem there.
Group Header C (form footer) is always 3 inches and must appear at the bottom of each page. No problem there.
The problem is with Group Footer B. This is where my sub report is located. This subreport returns a different number of rows each time (data lenght is never constant). Basically, I need to set it up so that it prints 4 inches worth of data and then if needed, put the rest on the next page and so on (still printing between Group Header A and C).
Any help?

Note that subreports (and anything else) will 'grow' over fields placed below them in the same section. That's where [Insert Section Below] comes in useful.

Basically, I need to set the MAX LINES of the subreport so that it doesn't grow or everlap. Unfortunatly, the max lines option is grayed out on the sub report.

If you want some sections to print on page 1 with the report header, but you do not want the page footer to print, go to format->section->page footer->suppress->x+2 and enter:
pagenumber = 1
