Good morning,
I am having this layout problem:

my report contains a List whose data have been grouped in Sections.
I want to keep all the records of the same section in the same page and not to split them on different pages.

How can I obtain that?

Regards and thanks in advance for yr help.
Matteo

Matteo,

Have you ever solved your problem? I hope so,

Otherwise try changing rows per page (Properties List) to 9999 and if it was not enough unmark "Allow contents to break across pages" in pagination option(Properties List).

Regards,

Carlos

Hi Carlos,

thank you very much for your interest.

I am still fighting with this layout problem  :P but your suggestion gave me a great help.
Now all the data of the same section are not splitted anymore but it still splits the header (title) of the section from the data.

Example:

TITLE A
record 1
record 2
record 3
TITLE B
--------------page change--------------
record 1
record 2....

It would be right if:
TITLE A
record 1
record 2
record 3
--------------page change-------------
TITLE B
record 1
record 2....


Hope you can help on this  :D
Ciao
Matteo

Hi

Try selecting the item you used for the section (or for the title) and add a page break on that

matteo

Hi,

can you please explain me how to add a page break?

Regards.

Hi

To set a page break highlight the item you want to break on then go to the structure menu on the toolbar and then set page break

Create 'Page Set' based on your Title field.

Report Pages --> Page Set

Bark

But, wouldn't the page set make much it slower? It will query the report as many times as "sets" are, won't it?

I think the page break is the most adequeate solution.
