Just make it bigger by dragging the outer edges.

Or are you talking about when it gets printed?

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.

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 11
The 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 report
that should be one page is 4 pages :(

Did you try expanding it to say 15"?

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