Just make it bigger by dragging the outer edges. Or are you talking about when it gets printed?Tara |

I've only seen this happen when the page was viewed in PDF format. What happens if you make the page even bigger? I wonder if it's because the cells are set to automatically expand depending on the contents but you reached the maximum width so it put it on another page.Tara |

im still having issues with this...when i look at the design of the report it hits about 10".I could see if the report was portrait that it would use so many pages, but I want the report to be in landscape mode. I tried looking at the properties of the report and the page width and height is 8.5 x 11The left margin / right and bottom are all set to .5 which is what I want. THe top margin is set to .65.I want this report to come out in landscape but it looks like when it runs its in portrait because a reportthat should be one page is 4 pages :( |

I figured it out, I swapped the page width and height and that did the trick.Jon |
