Columns / Groups: New unneccessary empty page created

edited August 2006 in General
Hi,

RB 10.04 + Delphi 7 Pro

I have a report with in the detailband a subreport:

Report:
Columns = 4
ColumnWidth = 269
PaperName = A4

SubReport:
Columns = 4
ColumnWidth = 269
PaperName = A4
The subreport is grouped by a datafield = Employee.
Start New Page = False.
Start New Column = True.

When I print this report and there are only 3 employees then everything is
printed on one single page.
But when there are 4 Employees then there is always an extra page (with only
the header of the report).

I can't figure out what is causing this behaviour.
Does anybody have some suggestions where I could look for the solution?

Regards,
Stef

    Hi Stef,

    This is probably caused because 4 records are not quite fitting on one page.
    One option would be to resize the detail band so that 4 records can fit on a
    single page easier. You can also try adjusting the new page threshold from
    the groups dialog or from the TppGroup object.

    Hello Nico,

    The report fits easily on one page. So that isn't it.

    Hi Stef,

    This is not a known issue with RB 10.04. If possible, please send a simple
    example demonstrating the issue to support@digital-metaphors.com and I'll
    take a look at it for you.
