Remove blank page after a group
Hi everybody,
I am very new to CR 9. I am trying to generate a report in such a way that records are grouped on the basis of group#1 i.e. (branch name). I also require that after the details of a particular branch are printed the details of next br should commence printing on the next page. The problem is Iam getting a blank page inbetween each branch. My design & section expert details are given in the attached snapshots.
Can anyone help me. :cry:

Hello... Have asked a very complex Question?
Re: Remove blank page after a group
The screenshots were no help.
Check each Group Header/Footer in the Section expert. One or more of them probably has the options New Page Before or New Page After selected.

what should I provide enabling you to examine my problem.
Or in the alternative are there any thumbrules in setting the new page before/after. Pls. :cry:
Re: Remove blank page after a group
Set the New Page Before option of the Branch Group Header only. Ensure the New Page Before and New Page After options of all other sections are cleared.

this prints the very first page as blank...
Re: Remove blank page after a group
Does the solution at least solve the problem of blank pages between each group?
The New Page Before option of the first Group Header will cause a page break after the Report Header section prints. The Report Header section is not visible in the screenshot you posted but I suspect it is empty.
Simply suppress the printing of the Report Header section.

Yes.

you are right. but Now I have added the RH and the blank page vanished. Thanks :D What happened?
Now there is another problem. The last Page prints only the Page header though there are no records forthcoming. As there are no records nothing should be printed, then why is the report printing the page header. How to prevent this behaviour. :confused:
Re: Remove blank page after a group
In preview mode, immediately left of the page output, Crystal indicates the section where the printed output was created.
Which section(s) are printed on the last page? Probably the Report Footer. Based on the screenshot you posted it contains several blank rows. Suppress the RF.

It displays PH,RF,PF.
After I suppressed the RF the problem of last page printing without records vanished.
Though the problem is solved, I am unable to grasp what is happening. Can You please explain, as this would enable me to avoid problems in future.
