Left margin of sub-report

rbuser

In a sub-report I am attempting to print two columns on the right hand
side of the 8.5x11 " landscape report.
The two columns are printed correctly except it prints at a left margin
of .5 regardless of how I set the sub-report MarginLeft (trying to use
5.75).
Using RB 5 pro with Delphi 5 pro.
What am I missing?

You can accomplish this by selecting File->Page Setup and modifying the
Column Positions on the Layout tab.

That worked!! Thank you!
Following the two column sub-report, I have a one column sub-report that is
marked Shift Relative to SubReport1 and with a PrinterSetup.MarginLeft = 5.75

but it prints on the left side.
The File / Page Setup / Layout doesn't seem to allow a specification for a
one column.
What can I do for this?

Set the ParentWidth property of the subreport to False. Then you can adjust
the width of the subreport within the band and set it's left edge at the
5.75 mark.

I appreciate you help, but I still can't get this to print right.

The ParentWidth and ParentPrinterSetup were already set to false for both
subreport1 and 2.
Parent: (Prints correctly)
MarginLeft is .5
Orientation is Landscape
Papername is Letter 8 1/2 x 11
Subreport1: (Prints correctly, two narrow columns on the right side)
MarginLeft is .5
File/Pagesetup/Layout/Column 1 is 5.25
Subreport2: (should be on the right side, directly below Subreport2)
ShiftRelativeTo: ppSubReport1
MarginLeft is 5.5

Subreport2 prints on the left side, instead of right side,
midway down the page, not at the top edge of, nor below Subreport2.
It should print below Subreport1.

Make sure that the ShiftRelativeToProperty of Subreport2 is set to
Subreport1.
