Group Header Splits When Spanning Multiple Pages

Hi,

I have a set of subreports, which belong to a larger report, in which
I use Group Headers with the "Repeat Section" property set to "Yes,"
so that the headers repeat when the subreports have enough data to
span multiple pages. The issue I'm having is that if a subreport's
header is at the bottom of the page and the entire header does not fit
onto it, Access will just cut it in half, so that half the header is
displayed on one page and the other half is displayed on the next.
The Detail section displays fine. Any ideas?

Thanks

Have you tried setting the header section's KeepTogether
property to Yes?

Yes, I've tried that on the group header, detail section, and also on
the sorting and grouping fields with no luck.

Thanks

Using KeepTogether to Yes on the group header section should
be sufficient. Are you sure the stuff that is split across
a page boundary is in the group header section?

I don't see how it's relevant, but I feel like I should ask
if this happens any time the group header appears or just
the first time?

Maybe not what you want, but another thing to try is setting
the group's KeepTogether property to With First Detail

The only other thing I can think of that might cause the
problem is if you have some code that is fooling around with
the main report's Page Footer section.

I've removed all code and the issue is still occurring. I've also
tried the KeepTogether options that you've specified, with no luck.
None of the options effect the subreport at all, which is strange. I
should note, in the sorting and grouping menu, I have the following
groups defined:

=1 (this is used to allow for repeating the header in subreports)
Time (the time and date fields are used to control the sorting of the
report, maybe this is not the right way to do it?)
Date

Thank you

The repeat section header should be fine. Is that the
header that's being split? If it is, then you should
probably also have its ForceNewPage property set to Before
Section.

If it's a different group header that's split, please
provide more detailed information about the report.,

Yes, the repeat section header is being split. It is the only header
I have, but I have multiple other Field/Expression entries within the
Sorting and Grouping menu (Time and Date), if that effects anything.
I've tried the ForceNewPage property, but it did not have any effect.
Thank you

Any more info on this? I've been working at this for hours and am
running out of ideas. Thanks

Coder09,

What are your margins on your report and what is the minumum margins your
printer will except?

Thanks for the reply. The margins are set appropriately, per what the
printer can accept.
