Print position exceeds available page space error when attempting to run the report

edited November 2005 in General
Hello,

I am receiving an error of: "Print position exceeds available page space"
when I attempt to run the report.

The report has a main report, subreport. All I did was expand the detail
band on the main report an additional .1997 in height. Original height of
the detail band on the main report was: .1979. New detail band height
would now be: 0.375.

I don't see anything in the form's pas or datamodule's pas that would be
expanding the page height (portrait page with 8.5 wide by 11 inches tall).
Additionally, I don't see any existing code that is manipulating where a
summary band or footer band would appear.

Please let me know what do I need to do in order to resolve this error or
what I should look for and how.

Thanks in advance.

Karen

    Hi Karen,

    This error indicates that somewhere in your report the PrintPosition
    property of a band is set outside the printable area of the page. Take a
    look at the PrintPosition of each band in your report and be sure it lies
    within your margin boundaries. You may also try tracing the exception into
    the RB source to see exactly which band is causing the problem.
