Hi EdB,
The best way to determine where you are on the page is to use the
PrintPosRect property of the Report.Engine. The bottom of this rectangle
represents the current position on the page the report has spanned.
Hi EdB,
No, ReportBuilder will calculate the amount of space that is available on
the page after the group header prints. Since the page footer and margins
are static height, the calculation will be made between the bottom of…Hi EdB,
Now that I think about it more, I do not believe two pass will work in your
case due to the fact that you need to change the actual page spacing on the
fly. Once the first pass is finished, all spacing for the page is…Could you possibly create a two pass report to determine whether you have a
footer band on the given page or not before the report is displayed? Note
that for later versions of ReportBuilder (RB 9 and later) we included a

Is this a detail band that is printing? How are you calculating the

Which combobox are you speaking of? Is this the font combobox of the format

in Accessing Custom Toolbars Comment by nicocizik September 2006Hi Steffen,
Take a look at the following example. It gives a few good examples on how
to manage and customize the new toolbars for RB 10.x. From your code below
it looks like you have the basic idea. It is possible to split…Hi Alan,

Sorry, please see my second response to Alan who earlier had the same issue.

Hi Laurent,
My first suggestion would be to upgrade to RB 7.04. This is a free upgrade
for registered users of RB 7.x. Contact info@digital-metaphors.com with

I mentioned before, ReportBuilder 7.x and earlier were simply not designed

Unfortunately the only robust workaround is to use static height detail
bands. You may also try keeping the value in a group footer however this is
very difficult if you need to show the page value. The limitatio…Hi Max,
This is a limitation of ReportBuilder that existed in versions before RB 9.
It involved calculating a value in the page footer with a dynamic height
detail band. This limitation was removed for RB 9.x or later.

If you right click over the fields added to the Search tab in the query
designer, you will see that you can insert parentheses and OR statements.

ReportBuilder does not have any built-in feature to handle this type of
autosearch however it is possible to replace the native autosearch dialog
with one of your own. This would allow you to handle the user input ho…Hi Toby,
If you are using DADE to create your queries, I would recommend using the

Have you tried using the NoDataBehaviors property of the subreport. Setting

I believe this is an IBO error indicating that there is no data defined. Be
sure that your IB components are successfully connecting to your data when
