How to insure there is no pagebreak between detail sections of a crystal report?

In my Crystal Report I have four detail sections. I want this section stay on one page together. For example if there is not enough space for all SECTIONS on one page, then all four sections should go to the next page.
You will need at least one level of grouping on your data for this to work, but begin in the design tab of your report and right click on the group name and select "Change Group" from the menu. Then go to the Options tab and check the check box for Keep Group Together.
This will keep all sections of the group and the details sections within together on a page. If they don't fit, the whole group will begin on a new page and will only push data into a second page if the entire group and all of its contained sections do not fit on one page together.
You can activate this functionality in the Section Expert you select on the left the Menu Details and then you have to check the option on the right keep together.

Reduce gap between Report Footer and Page Footer

There is a sizable gap between report footer and page footer. How can I reduce the blank space?
In the section expert, you'll note that the Page Footer has Print at Bottom of Page checked, and is grayed out. A page footer will always print at the bottom of the page.
If you want to move the Report Footer down you can check Print at Bottom of Page for both of them.
If you want to move the Page Footer up it's a little trickier. You might get by with suppressing the Page Footer on the last page only, and displaying a duplicate section at the end of the report (if there's more than one page.) This should handle both large and small page counts.

crystal report - page footer overlaps details section

I have a report with two header sections (HS), two details sections (DS) and two page footer sections (PFS).
and I want to get report with following layout
page 1:
HS-1
DS-1
PFS-1
page 2 and more:
HS-2
DS-2
PFS-2
and I do it but my problem is with first page, PFS-1 overlaps DS-1.
DS-1 has "new page after" condition where after one record is displayed new page should start. HS-1 and PFS-1 are suppressed if pagenumber <> 1
there are text boxes and line objects on DS-1 but PFS-1 overlaps almost half of it while the PFS-1 itself is just one line in size.
PFS-1 is "fit section" and no, I can't use
print at bottom of page
because it is disabled, grayed out. as for sizes of section they are same as the second ones but I have no problem with second or farther pages, this problem occurs only on first page.
as you can see in picture below, text marked with red is the single line of footer and it is way too high positioned and it overlaps the details section :/.
under that footer there is at least one more box like the one that is outlined with blue box and three data fields .
please can anyone help me with this ?

details section insert blank page on main report, started display record on second pages

i having problem in details section, my report will insert blank page to my first pages and will only display data started from second pages, below is setting for my details section
Section1(Report Header)
only suppress blank section is ticked
Section2(Page Header a)
only suppress blank section is ticked
PageHeaderSection2(Page Header b)
only suppress blank section is ticked
problem goes here
Section3 (Details)
only suppress blank section is ticked
the rest all is un-tick
If you are using any groups, check if you have "Keep together" checked and try to uncheck it and see if it helps. It should be in Section Expert and also in Change Group...
The length of one of your column values could be too long for your setup
The page header is suppressed, un-surpress the header.
Hope this helps!
I guess, you have expanded your fields, maybe the header or footer, screenshot may help, you need to make their sized small, sometimes when the header is too big, the details section starts from next page, or you can always play with the margins of the report.

Crystal Reports - repeat page header when data changes

I have a report that is pretty complex, with multiple sub-reports for each item selected. I want a main header for each item, and then a page header for that item at the top of each page. If I only select one item it looks great. If I have multiple items, that main page header only shows once.
main header
page header item 1
details
page header item 1
details
page header item 1
details
main header
page header item 2
details
page header item 2
details
How do I design it so that Item 2 main header shows up?
The details are a series of group headers (I inherited this report). Right now it has just what I want, except that the main header shows once and only once. It is in a Report Header section, the page header is a Page Header section, and all the rest of the reports (which can span multiple pages) are in various Group Header sections.
edit:
I can put both the main header and the page header in a Page Header a and Page Header b section, with the item id in both. Now, if I can suppress Page Header a if item id is duplicated, it should print it only with a new item id, and the page header b will still print at the top of each page.
Since a report only has one "Report Header", you'll have to organize your groups in a way that "main header" is a top level group, "page header" is a sub group, and finally details is below that.
Once you have that done you can then click on the Paging tab in section expert and click the New Page Before option in order to get the pages to break like you expect.
Edit:
Under menu Report, Group Export, in the Group By, there is an Options button, and then an Options tab. That is where the Repeat Group Header on Each Page option is. Then, back in the Section Expert for the Main Header Group, in the Suppress function, put InRepeatedGroupHeader. That way, the Main Header (GroupHeader#1a) is suppressed except for the first page for each item, and the Page Header (GroupHeader#1b) shows at the top of each page.
IN the grouping there are two Headers i.e. 1- Report Header (a, b, c etc) and 2- Page Header. Place the Fields (column names) in the Report Header and also the Same Fields (columns Names) in the Page Header.
Then in the Group Expert , Check the Radio Button in the Group Option to : "Repeat the Group Header on Each Page".
The Report Header fields will be displayed on the first Page and Page Header will be displayed on the rest of Pages.
I got my answer from this external post by brucevde on VB Forums:
What you need to do is setup your details section for multiple
columns.
Place the database field(s) in the details section as normal.
In Format Section dialog, click on Details and an option appears at the bottom called "Format with Multiple Columns".
Once you check this option a new tab called Layout will appear. Use this tab to setup your multi-column page.
When you click OK, Crystal will duplicate your details section to the right X number of times, depending on the width you have chosen.
