    Are you using Portrait or landscape? How many fields are there in your report?

    Hi,,

    i am working on datareports.
    i am not able to increase the width of the report layout.
    I was thinking your working access reports...

    i have 20 to 25 fields. where can i mention Portrait or landscape
    20 to 25 is a lot to display...What type of information are you displaying on the report? customer? sales? payroll?

    Are you basing your report from a query?

    For the adjustment of the width, simple locate the width property of the report on the properties window...Just lessen the margin and the width of to adjust the fields...

    CodeBank: VB.NET & C#.NET | ASP.NET
    Programming: C# | VB.NET
    Blogs: Personal | Programming
    Projects: GitHub | jsFiddle

    Re: How to Increase the width of the report

    This depends on the MONITOR-DISPLAY SETTINGS...!
    Try this with 1024*768 Resolution..
    If you still get the same error try Decreasing the Font size and fit all the fileds, if not only option let for u is to use, Crystal Reports...(As far as i know)....

    What do u say...????
