Multi-Column Report - NewColumn goes to a new page instead of same page

    I have a report defined with 2 columns in the detail section. I have a Groupheader which has ColumnLayout set to True. I only display the information in the GroupHeader. The detail height is 0. My data has 4 unique groups, which the Groupheader is tied to. I expect the report to show group 1 data in the first column, with group 2 data in the second column. I would expect Group 3 data to appear under Group 1 data (on the same page). Unfortunately, Group 3 data begins on the next page, with Group 4 data in the 2nd column on the 2nd page. There is plenty of room on the first page to show all the information.

    Thanks for any help,

    Rich

    Hello,

    Make sure that NewColumn property of the GroupHeader set to “None”.

    Thanks,

    Thank you for your response.

    If I change the NewColumn property of the GroupHeader to ‘None’, then the data only appears in one column. I have attached two images of the printed report.

    The one column report is with GroupHeader set to ‘None’. I want the report to look like ‘two column’ report. If you notice the data in ‘two column’ only shows half the data. The rest of the data is on the second page. I want the data to be on one page.

    Hello,

    Can you share the stripped down report with dummy data?

    Thanks,

    Sadly, I am not sure how to do that.

    Hello,

    You can compress them in ZIP file and share on the case.

    Thanks,

    Hi there… That report is not what I am trying to accomplish. Please check out the attached image. This is the result I am looking for on one page…

    Any luck with this report?

    The output you’re looking for can be achieved with a PageReport (FPL). You can add the OverflowPlaceholder control on the PageReport to make the data overflow as per your requirement. I have attached a sample application with a PageReport using the TestData you sent. Please take a look.
