Blank pages when printing

Hi - I am generating a table with large amounts of data. When I generate the
report, the report looks fine but when I print preview it, every alternating
page is blank with only the header and footer being displayed on every page.
I have tried playing around with the page breaks with no luck. Is there a
way, maybe programmaticaly to set page breaks and stop my report from having
blank page between data page? Or what might be causing the alternate blank
pages with header/footer?
thanksHello ISGADMIN,
I had a real time myself at first with plank pages as I am sure a lot of
designers did, but all you need to do is make sure the design grid, margin
settings and data regions fall within boundaries when designing. If you have
a one inch margins on the R and L in Landscape settings (11 X 8.5 in the
Report Properties) for example, the design area and all objects on it need
to fall under 10 inches on the ruler. You may have to tweak with the
measurement for the actual grid to get it just right, but it will work.

and start deleting objects from it. Perhaps one of the objects is taking a
full new page.
