I am using RS2000 SP2, and I have created a simple report. Everything looks
fine on the screen, but when I print it, it always prints out a blank page at
the end. For example, on the screen the report has 10 pages. When I print the
report, it has 11 pages (with the last page only containing the header). Any
suggestion on how to resolve this? Thank You!

Hey,
I know how annoying this is.
What you need to do is to ensure that the actual report is not longer
than your page (21cm by 29.7cm). The way around it I found is to click
on the table so that it shows handles and then squeeze it so that it's
no bigger than specified page, then also you need to adjust the page
itself... Unfortunately this is bit of a trial and error game!
Good luck

Black Reports in Print Layout
Hello all,
We have an issue with reports we created using the VS 2005 Team System. When
we open a report everything looks fine and report prints fine as well.
The problem is that when we click the Print Layout button on the report we
get a black page and only report title and group headers are visible. Mind
you, the report still prints fine on the printer but none of the data is
visible in the report.
Any ideas and solutions appreciated.

Thanks for the info. Got it but it won't install. Every single hotfix
reports a failure to install. Has anyone else had any problems with the
installation of the said hotfix?

You're welcome. You may have to install the Hot fixes in a particular
order. Have you tried verifying the order in which the hot fixes must
be installed? Hope this helps further.

Thanks for your answer.
The hotfixes are acutally rolled into one package which does not give you an
option to choose a particular order for installation. When we start the
installation it always asks for the SQL installation disk and then it reads
files from it and reports that the hotfix installation failed. And so on for
each of the components.
Well, I guess that we'll have to wait for the SP3 to have the issue
resolved.
Thanks again for your help.

You're welcome. Have you checked the Event Viewer for errors that
might be logged during the process? That might provide some better
details. Hope this helps further.

Thanks for your help. Unfortunatelly the Event Log is of no help as it does
not provide any useful information. The logs created by the installation
process say that the hotfix package could not be found but i have no idea
what to do with that information as the package physically exists on the
hard drive where the setup process extracted it.
Well, I can only wait for the next SP i guess.

You're welcome. Do you have SQL Server and/or Reporting Services
installed in a non-standard location (i.e., on a D or E partition)? If
that is the case, this could be the problem.

Thanks for your help. Unfortunatelly the Event Log is of no help as it does
not provide any useful information. The logs created by the installation
process say that the hotfix package could not be found but i have no idea
what to do with that information as the package physically exists on the
hard drive where the setup process extracted it.
Well, I can only wait for the next SP i guess.

You're welcome. Do you have SQL Server and/or Reporting Services
installed in a non-standard location (i.e., on a D or E partition)? If
that is the case, this could be the problem.

Bizarre zero suppression on print
Hi All,
I have a report (using CR XI) that uses conditional suppression.
Simple stuff, it prints out a few data values if at least one of the values is not null but prints a row of text (made up of the appropriate number of .00s in the right places) if all data values for the line are null.
In print preview on the screen it works perfectly but when I print it out, all the zeroes disappear and all that is left is the dot!
In case anyone is wondering why I doing it this way at all and not simply unselecting the suppress when zero checkbox it is because this report is a subreport of another report and if all the data values are null in the sub then the main just has a blank patch (rather than zeroes).
Anyway, any ideas re how to get the printer to print out what the preview says it will?
Thanks,
HywelCHello again,
I tried to export the report as a PDF and that works perfectly too. The problem just seems to be with the printer...very odd.
