Add multi page text box in Crystal Reports 2013 - crystal-reports

We have a multi-page Terms and Conditions which needs to print out at then end of our Quotes. I created a single row text box and pasted it in. I tried it in Page Footer a and well as Page Footer b. I formatted the text box: Can Grow with all the other boxes unchecked. I can scroll down through it to see it is all there in the text box, but when I View Preview it doesn't expand beyond one page. How can I make it grow into multiple pages?

It worked when placed in the Report Footer b section.

How to prevent image in Crystal Reports 10 from being cut off to the second page

I'm making a Crystal Reports template. The template has some text in the header and then it has an image. If the text has a few lines, the image is normal and allowed in the first page, but if the text has many lines the image will be cut off in the first page and second page. Could it have ways to prevent the image from being cut off to the second page, such as auto-rescaling the image size?
I tried can grow and other settings in Crystal Reports 10, but it didn't work.
Report Design Picture
Make sure Keep Object Together in the properties of the image is checked. This will prevent CR to split your image across pages.
Best option in this case would be Create another section and place the image in that section instead of text and image in same section, This will force the image to go to another page if it doens't fit in first page.
For E.g, if data in report header, create one more section Report Header a and place text in that section and Report Header b and place image in this section

Display report header in every page of cross tab in Crystal report

I want to display report header in every page of my cross tab report in Crystal Reports 13. Currently the header only appears on the first page. How can I fix this problem? Kindly suggest me.
Check bellow screen shot
Page 1:
Page 2:
Design View:
Right click on the selected fields in report header and go to format and check option Repeat on Horizontal Pages so that it applies for every page
Finally I solved the problem to display header for cross tab report in each page.
1.Create a formula using bellow code
WhileReadingRecords;
""
2.Create a Group Field using that formula field (which is empty group)
3.Crete Cross Tab Report inside of group header section.
4.Finally place my report header inside of page header section.
Now its working according to my demand and display report header every page
Thanks all of you
Check bellow screen shot
You have to do following things:
right-clicking on the row header
select Row options
select Repeat Labels on Page break
Crystal Reports lets you designate report objects that don't expand horizontally, such as text objects, field objects, OLE objects, charts, maps, lines, boxes, and so on, to be repeated on each additional horizontal page that a Cross-Tab creates.
Check this for help.
Also, similar question How to repeat Crystal Report Header on each page answered by me here. If you still after this links don't get solution, feel free to ask so we go into details of your cross-tab etc...
There are two kinds of headers in Crystal Reports. There are Report Headers (which you're currently using) and there are Page Headers (which are what you want to use in this case.)
A Report Header will only display once - on the first page.
A Page Header will appear on every page. (Unless you
specifically tell it not to.)
Move the circled fields into a Page Header and suppress the old Report Header you were using before. If all goes well, you'll see the circled field on every page going forward.
One other possible approach would be to insert a separate section above each crosstab that will contain your repeating Page Header. (Section Expert -> Insert) or (Right click Section -> Insert Section Below)
Then for the aforementioned inserted section, force a page break before. (Section Expert -> New Page Before)
Repeat this step for each Report Header section that contains a crosstab. The downside is that you will have many pages depending on the number of crosstabs in your report. Hope it helps.

How to move up 2nd page margin to top in Crystal Report Cross tab

I build report by using cross tab in crystal report in the first page i have title page that take area about 1/4 of the page consist with logo and report name and filter detail So on the second page it shown up the same position as the first page something that I want is to remove the report header section and move up the page header section and detail section to top on the 2nd page Thanks you for answer and i want to know Is this need to do ?? because some aspect of user tell that Its' okay don't move 2nd page up its should be like this same position same line its easy to read and compare the pages some aspect think that it's lost the area of the head of page 2 it's useless what should I do from here
To cojimarmiami,
i tried your suggestion formula but it' doesn't work when i preview it show just a page in horizantal by the vertical space separate it for 2 Block (not page) and when i printed its' come out 2 pages in A4 paper What should i do for the next step Thank you
you will have to place your logo, report name and filter on Page Header, then go to that Section Expert and place this formula on Suppress pagenumber <> 1. That is going to suppress that section if your are not on the first page.

Crystal reports lines not showing

I have a crystal report for an invoice that is formatted with some horizontal and vertical lines. The vertical lines cut across a number of group and detail sections. Crystal reports is version 13, and I am using it in the designer in Visual Studio 2013.
I have two problems
1) The vertical lines only extend to the beginning of the first detail section on the first page. On subsequent pages they display all the way down the screen.
2) For the second and last row of one of my groups, the vertical lines don't display at all.
I have tried removing the lines and re-adding them, and this has made no difference. I have also tried changing ExtendToBottomOfSection to true for the lines, but this doesn't seem to make any difference. Any other suggestions?
The key thing with lines and boxes in Crystal Reports is the section/area they start in and the section/area they end in. These areas always go in a specific order: Report Header, Page Header, Group Headers, Details, Group Footers, Report Footer, Page Footer.
Depending on the height of the areas, some sections may be bumped to the next page. Most issues I see with lines and boxes are due to them not starting/ending in the right section to give the desired effect on every page, even pages where some sections may be omitted.
If you want lines to span the whole page, they should start at the top of the Page Header area and end in the bottom of the Page Footer.
What I think you're looking for is a slight variation on this (I'm guessing based on your problem description): to run the line down the entire page, but not actually have it appear in the page header/footer. In this case, you will want the line to start at the bottom of the page header, and end at the top of the page footer. This will give the effect of the line covering the page (but not the header/footer), regardless of how many records appear on the page.
These properties are easiest to control from Design view (where it's easier to distinguish section boundaries), or from the properties dialog (where you can make the top/bottom values exact).
Hope this helps!

Hidding the footer on first or last page keep footer space

Hidding the footer on first or last page keep footer space
If you hide the footer on the first or last page, SSRS keep the space for the header but it hide the content.how can i use this space because it effecting my design(some records of table are viewed separately in next page)
thanks in advance
Normally when you hide the Header/Footer the space will be available for you to use
Usually in Report Properties you can set the margins top,bottom to suit your requirements,
and it may be that Report Body and margins need some adjustment.
If all your report elements are within the limits [Width, Height] of Report Body then your report should render fine.
