I print a wide cross-tab that fills the full page width. There is nothing else on that sheet and I would like to have the overflow printed on the sheet rather than to a new page. How can this be achieved.
Unfortunately, this behavior is not possible using the cross tab component. You might try taking a look at Grid Pack for ReportBuilder. I understand it contains a very sophisticated crosstab component. http://www.planitechnologies.com
I might be stupid, but from the advertisements etc. of Grid Pack I understood like you that he has a Cross Tab that does what RBuilders component does plus extras. It turns out that the name Cross Tab happens to be the same and you could do a lot of formatting of each cell etc., but you could not do the simple stuff like specifying a X and Y value, and a value that should summed in the cross tab that should auto fill at run-time. Instead you have to design it exactly with the amount of rows and columns you want at design time.
I'm working on it to improve the functionalities of the CrossTab of Grid Pack ReportBuilder now. The purpose for defining the rows and columns at design time is that, it let you to decide how many rows and columns of the grid you want to print per page, e.g. you decide that you want to print a grid 20 (rows) X 10 (columns) per page, then grid would do that for you. As I said, the CrossTab component in Grid Pack now has its limitations (it just version 1), but I'm working on it right now to make it more powerful.

I surely hope it happens fast, as I'm a registered user of Grid Pack but
have no use of it, since this was my original reason for buying it.
Thanks again.
