how we could fixed the header on the right not on the top
like this
If you go into the Section Expert and select your header section you can enable the "Underlay Following Sections" property for the header section. This will allow the sections that follow to effectively print on top of the header section. At this point its a matter of designing the content of you header so that it does not extend beyond the point where you wish to end the left side section. Then when designing the content for the remaining sections be certain that nothing is placed on the left side of the sections where the header will be displayed.
Using this method will give the appearance you want in your output, but in truth, the header section and all other sections are still the full width of the page, its just up to you to control placement of your data fields and objects to ensure header section doesn't overlap with the other sections in ways that create undesired outputs.

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

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.
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!
i want to create a template for Libreoffice Writer which contains a right column for informations which should be displayed on all pages.
In fact i want a kind of page header on the right side.
Is there any way to solve my problem ?
You could use a text frame that's anchored in the header / footer. This way, you can place content on the same place on every page while that content doesn't need to keep inside the header / footer margins.
To do so, just activate header or footer, place the cursor inside it and select Menu Insert -> Frame. To keep the main page content apart from the "right column", just set the right page margin appropriately.
If the content that should appear in the "right column" is non-textual, you could also try to implement it as background image of the header / footer. AFAIK background images in header / footer aren't restricted to the header / footer area.
I'm trying to add a "side bar" to my report that can overlap all the other sections. Is there a way to do this? I can't find anything like that.
Also, this side bar will only have static text. So using the overlap bug/feature from details section will not work.
If you are using CR2008 or later, you can underlay a section:
Add a new report header (right click report header and 'Insert Section Below')
In the section expert, select the new report header section and select 'Underlay following section'
This will spill the report header 2 over any groups, details and report footers so you may have to be careful with the size.
Design will look like:
When previewed it will look like:
We are trying to create Crystal Report but have a problem with page template creation.
Report looks like this:
It should be "stamp" in the right bottom corner of page. First page stamp looks little different from other pages stamp.
At the left part of page on the left margin two objects are placed. Both of them oriented vertically and should work as header and footer (should be shown on every page) but take more room than required for usual header and footer. In this case we can't use usual header and footer to place these objects.
Tables on pages should work as "background" because even 1 record on page should show 20-row table (with first row filled in this example)
It would be great if we have something like "left running title" but we can't see such feature in CR.
I attached couple images to show how the report should look (sorry, i can't post images here because have no enough reputation points):
First Page Second Page
Could you please say how such report template can be created? We have no skilled CR developer in our company and have no idea which way of report creation can be used :(
We also agree to use another report engine if it is free and can work with .NET applications
Thanks for help

You can use underlay property of the sections to get the desired result. You can use the page header and page footer for putting the details and for page-header, set the underlay property to TRUE and for the footer, set the property of the detail section (I presume, you have a single detail section in the report) to TRUE. This will make the details of the header and footer display beneath the detail section.
