     Posted: 03 Jan 2012 at 1:47am

Hello

 

I have a very wide report (3 pages long) and the A3 paper (landscape) is not enough to show results for all 40 employees spread in a header section.

 

I need help adjusting the page break so that the results are shown for the first 20 employees and results for employee 21 onwards are shown on a new page.

  

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

      E1  E2 E3 E4 E5 E6…

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

E21 E22 E23 E24….

Your help is greatly appreciated.

 
 
 
 
Many thanks

I am pretty sure that there is a record counter (RecordNumber), but I haven't used it, but you could use it or a shared variable that is incremented every employee (detail or group header...whichever is appropriate), and in the Section Expert for the group(probably) put something like:
 
shared numbervar counter;
counter = 21
 
or
 
RecordNumber = 21
 
for the New Page Before x-2 button

Many thanks for your reply but my employees are within the page header section (I show the employees in the header section using pivot table)

and the New Page Before option is greyed out.

Is there any other way to do this?
Many thanks

ahhh, I misunderstood...
 
I know how I could accomplish this in another reporting system, but CR is harder.  Actually nothing is coming to mind that I know will work. 
 
Things I would try/have thought of:
*multiple page headers that are suppressed dynamically
*multiple employee tables for multiple cross tabs (stored proc)
*moving the data out of the page header into a group and having the group header act as the page header
*subreport
