crystal reports fix group section height - c#

I want to set the height of group section in crystal report. I want to set the group section such that it must at the most accommodate 10 records in the section.
If I have only 2 records in the section, it should show 8 empty lines.
If I have more than 10 records in the section, the remaining records will be placed on the next page.
After that, the footer will be printed at the end of it.
Is this possible as i didnt get any solution even after lot of searching

Its a typical requirement but will try to provide solution. There is no need to increase the size of the group section just Try Below given way.
1. Insert 11 group sections.
2. Place the data field in 1st group section.
3. In the remaining 10 group sections place a line and write the supress condition for individual group section on the number of records retrived. For e.g if 5 records are retrived then 5 group sections with lines should get displayed and remaining sections with lines should get supressed, If 10 records are retrived then all 10 sections should get supressed.
Note: This is not a tested code.

I have seen requests like this before and they never quite work out due the way CR is structured. To limit your group to only show 10 records, you go into the Section Expert and under the paging tab you can check "New Page after 10 visible Records".
As far as the blank lines go, you could try and create a formula that will insert blank lines if the total of lines is less than 10, or you could try to display the records using a subreport that you format accordingly.

What you need to do instead of suppressing the band is to suppress the fields instead.. That way the band height remains even if the fields dont print

rdlc - Concatenate 2 tablix - same dataset - synchronization lost..,

Since i haven't find a way to merge colunms cells in rdlc, I've tried to concatenate 2 tablixes horizontaly- one is "standard" table, and the other is one field (those were my needs).
Running my sp on my rdlc, it works fine where there is one record to display.
However, when the result is multiple records, and I'm saving results in .pdf file, the 2 tables are not "synchronized" together any more - the gaps between results of each records are different.
I've tried to surrender the tablixes in rectangle and define a page break after rectangle - table still not synchronized...
Please advice..... ☺
Combine your two tablix into one. You can create the appearance of having two by putting an empty column between the two "sides" with no borders on top or bottom of the cells. It will look like two tables side by side, even though it is one table, and the rows will be forced to line up horizontally.
Another possibility for you is to have a sub-report. Create a simple report of just the tablix of the second table in question of the field(s) you want to include.
Then edit your primary report to include the sub-report. I cant direct in detail now how to link-up the sub reports and parameter link them, but suggest some reading up on it. So Each detail row in the parent report would be a group by (its PKID for example), then add the sub-report to it. This way as many rows at the sub-level go if 1 or more...

Display two different section in crystal report

I want to display two different section in one crystal report. In my report i have created two section but they both display same data as you can saw in below image.
What setting is needed for displaying different data? Thanks.
Here image of my crystal report design
After seeing the report design, here are your issues:
Just because you have two detail sections doesn't mean it will show you two different values.
A report is structured like a book:
The Report Header and Footer are like the cover and back page - you only put information on them that you want to see once.
The Page Header and Footer should contain information that you want to see on every page at the top and bottom.
The Group Header and Footer are used to show information if your data is grouped by certain criteria - like chapters of a book.
The Detail Section shows either all data or the data that pertains to a group - like the text within the chapters.
So, in your case I would create a group that is based on your employee. Put all your header information (the top 3 lines in your report) in the Page Header. In the Group Header you put everything in line 4 and 5. Line 6 through 17 go into the Detail Section. Line 18 with all the totals goes into the Group Footer. Everything from line 19 on goes into the Page Footer.
I hope this makes sense and I'll be more than happy to help out further.

How can I determine if a MigraDoc table would be split among two pages?

I'm using MigraDoc to generate some PDFs. I have code to create a table of text for each element in an array and am printing out pages with these tables.
However, the requirements I am being given is that if I have 2 tables, and the 2nd table would not fit on the page due to the length of the first table, I need the 2nd table to start the next page. I then need to repeat this for each table I am adding to my document.
How would I go about doing this?
If all tables are small enough to fit a single page, then there is a simple solution: set the KeepWith property of the first row to row count minus one to keep the whole table on one page.
If tables do not always fit a single page: you could try a hack, e.g. setting KeepWith to 6 or 8 or 10 (depends on the height of your table rows). If the value is close to what fits on a single page (without going over), tables will start on a new page automatically.
Obviously this will work very good if table rows have a constant height; if tables rows have varying heights, this will not work reliably, but will still prevent tables that will only have one or two rows on the first page (this is not your requirement, but maybe the requirement can be discussed?).
The clean (but complicated) way to fulfill your requirements: get access to the internal GetRenderInfoFromPage method. You will have to start an incremental process:
1) render the document;
2) if you find a split table, insert a page break before that table and repeat from 1.

Controlling placement of footer sections on page in Crystal Reports

I use CrystalReport in Visual Studio 2005 and make a bill report ... this bill
I use the header - Details- and footer in this report ..
in details section I limit the record to 10 for every page
so if there is a bill contains 15 record ..
first 10 record in first page . and 5 in the second page when print
put the problems
1- the footer show in the second page only
2- in the second page the Fields in the footer Raised up beacuse the second page contains 5 records only
so if the record number in the report is not 10 so the footer fields raised up
so please any one help me to solve the problem
Notation : I limit the number of records for every page to 10 record only .. i need empty
records if the reports records < 10 \
Please any one help my
Thanks
Sorry I don't know 100% what your problem is (maybe post some screenshots) but there might be two possible problems/solutions:
in CR Reports you've got document and page footer - if you use the document footer (don't remember the exact name) you will see this only once - just like a document header
if the details parts get's to big the footers are AFAIK the first thing that get's striped so try to compress your details (or any other section) to get more area for the footer (or display only 9 items per page instead of 10 - just for trial)
To really fill your report with empty details you will have to append empty rows to your data and use conditional supresses in your CR to not show things like '0' but IMHO this will get a real pain and you should go without printing empty details - never seen a situation where you need this or where it is desired.

Crystal Report Script To Find Title of Max Value?(simple Q!)

Please Help!
I asked my Q in many Forums but i did'nt recieve any clear answer.
This is my Q:
I created a table in a Details Section and I have a Title Col and Point Col in this table how can I write code to find Title of max point in my table???
this is my .rpt overview:
(source: googlepages.com)
you see i have 3 cols in Details Section. Point,BitParagonTitle,Alphabet.
I want to show BitParagonTitle to user according to Maximum of point in footer of report.
How can I perform this in Crystal report? please Help me!!!
So I want to:
Find Maximum Value of point Column.
Find title of Max Point.
I created a collection of Data Object in an ArrayList as report DataSource.
Please Help me to write some crystal report scripts to find Title of Max Point and show it in Group Footer.
This is Important that I dont use SQL DB Procedures or tables as data source and I Collected Data manually as I said.
I am not sure of all of your requirements, but if you don't mind the Details being sorted the easiest way is to group by the Point column and then if the points are sorted ascending you can simply put the field title and point fields in the Point group footer. This will only display the last row of the Point column which in turn will be the maximum since it is sorted asc.
This will give you the maximum row so if you didn't care to see the other rows you can simply suppress the details section. Hope this makes sense and helps.
You'll need to use a pair of global Crystal variables in a formula that is evaluated in the Details section, as well as two other formulas referring to those variables.
The two variables are to store the max of point, and the title associated with that (so presumably a NumberVar and a StringVar, say called MaxPoint and MaxPointTitle).
One formula goes in the Report Header, and simply initialises the two variables to zero and empty string.
The second goes in the Details section. It evaluates if the current Point value is higher than that stored in the MaxPoint variable. If so, it stores the new value in MaxPoint and the current title in MaxPointTitle.
In the Report footer, a third formula is used to display the title and/or value.
If you want group max values rather than overall ones, move the formula in the Report header to the Group header, and from the Report footer to the Group footer, and it should work.
