Title: blank page on the report
Post by: Little Princess on 14 Apr 2009 12:36:55 PM
Hello experts,

I have a report where I have to have output options: policy, division and subdivision, all my data separated in blocks and repeated in each block, the selection of each bloc is controlled by render variable. I also have two queries that have Master-Detail relationship configured.

I have filters setup for both queries and it works well, but it brings me blank page at the end of the report. Why is it doing and how can I stop it?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Cheers
LP

Why don't you try setting up the variable for the list instead of the block?

Hi jayani,

I tried to do that and it still gives me a blank page.
At the bottom of my report I have a table that carries all the parameters, this table normally would show up at the end of each entity: policy, division, subdivision. The blank page would have this table and no other data.
Now when I moved the variable to the list this table shows up firs with the blank page and then I get report data.
Cheers

Hi Princess,

Is the table placed inside a block or something?
Please do check whether any height and width or padding has been set.
B'coz thatz the one which will cause wide space to appear.

Hi jayani,

This table sitting at the bottom of the report, it is not in a block.
It’s company standard, so I can’t get rid of the table.
I changed all the spacing, just like you recommended, it didn't make any difference.

I appreciate your help.
