Hi experts,

my difficulty as below;

I want to reserved 6 records in Detail section, but my records after grouping are 3. I want to show as 3 records and 3 blanks at the report view.


----------------------------------------------------
Report Header:
----------------------------------------------------
Group Header#1:
Text title1...
Text title2...
....
----------------------------------------------------
Detail: |
Record 1 (For each loop from grouping will show 1 record)
Record 2 (2nd loop from grouping)
Record 3 (3rd loop...)
blank (4th loop...) Smile
blank (5th loop...)
blank (6th loop...)
-----------------------------------------------------
Group Footer#1:
-----------------------------------------------------
Report Footer: (I wan to fixed report footer length(y-axis) start from 8")
Summary Total
-----------------------------------------------------


Either y-axis of report footer start from 8" or make a blank loop reserved for 6 rows eventhough there are less than 6 records.

I would set the report footer the size that you want, and check the option 'Print at Bottom of Page' in the Section Expert.

But the condition is:
Let say my detail start from 5"

|-----------------------------------------------| (5")
|Detail:
|Record 1
|-----------------------------------------------|(5 1/2")
|Group Footer#1 (Hide)
|-----------------------------------------------|(Here will continue after 5 1/2")
|Report Footer:
|Summary   Total
|-----------------------------------------------|



next loop, the footer will be push down...
|-----------------------------------------------| (5")
|Detail:
|Record 1
|Record 2
|-----------------------------------------------|(6")
|Group Footer#1 (Hide)
|-----------------------------------------------|(Here will continue after 6")
|Report Footer:
|Summary   Total
|-----------------------------------------------|


But I want the report footer start from 8" at the position of the report when printing even there is only 1 record.

Any idea of the view below? Smile

|-----------------------------------------------| (5")
|Detail:
|Record 1
|blank
|blank
|blank
|blank
|blank
|-----------------------------------------------|(8")
|Group Footer#1 (Hide)
|-----------------------------------------------|(Here will continue after 8")
|Report Footer:
|Summary   Total
|-----------------------------------------------|

make the report footer 3" and tell to print at the bottom of the page.  If this doesn't work, unfortunately you are out of luck.  Crystal doesn't allow you position any section at a set location.
 
You might try adding in empty rows, so that the number of rows is always the same.  I would try creating a formula that is in the group footer, but off the top of my head I can't think of any thing that would definitely work.
