Open a blank report in crystal 2008 and insert a new page footer section. Then delete said page footer section. When you look back in section expert the "print at bottom of page" is still greyed out yet now unchecked. This causes the report to only display the PF on the last page after the detail and report footer. Is there anyway to reset it? Has anyone ever encountered this before on any version of crystal?
Open a blank report in crystal 2008 and insert a new page footer section. Then delete said page footer section.
Firstly I am confused on why to insert a new page footer section and then delete it. If you are not intrested in a new page footer section then why are you inserting?
Page footer is displayed at the end of every page. If your report has only one page then you will see that page footer is displayed after the report footer, But if the report is spread across the multiple pages then you can see the page footer at the end of every page.
You could always try inserting a new page footer and suppressing the old one, hopefully it will default in to every page then.

I have a report with a group.My report has a blank page at the end of the report. My report is only Two page but it prints a blank one page at last.when i export to PDF, i will get this blank page also. Both the Page Footer and Report Footer have a checkmark in the "Suppress(No-Drill-Down)" but it is greyed out. I was going to add a formula in x-2 'pagenumber = TotalPageCount' but I can't get to it. Is there anything else that I need to check that could be causing this?
Try the fix detailed here
You should try the instructions under
If the "New Page After" checkbox is marked for Group Footer #1, conditionally suppress it for the last page.
On your group:
-Section Expert - New Page After (click X+2 button)
-Set this formula Not(OnLastRecord)
If it doesn't work, please post a screenshot of your layout if you can.
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.
I want to show report page footer on only first page and not on second page.I mean hide page footer on second page not suppress.Because of suppress I have facing space problem on second page.So, give me answer about these.
Depending on your version of Crystal Reports (I'm using CR 2008 Version 12.0.0) you can achieve this by doing the following:
Put your footer text in the page footer
Open the section expert and put WhilePrintingRecords; PageNumber > 1 in the Suppress Formula field.
Check "Suppress Blank Section"
Check "Clamp Page Footer"
That should only show the footer on the first page and eliminate blank spaces on subsequent pages.
Hope that helps,

if you checked "Clamp Page Footer", the second and last page's height will be cut to shrink!
I want to add terms & condition only in the last page, i add it under page footer, i add the formula (PageNumber<>TotalPageCount)to print it in the last page, it works fine,but the problem that it reserves and keep blank zone(Page footer section) in each page after the last.
thanks for help,
EDIT:
I think I figured it out, at least it works in CR 2008.
Open Section Expert and add WhilePrintingRecords; PageNumber <> TotalPageCount suppression formula to the page footer.
Check the "Suppress Blank Sections"
Check "Clamp Page Footer"
This should now show the page footer only on the last page without any blank spaces on the other pages.
Hope that helps,
Chris
I am using Crystal Reports in Visual Studio 2008. I have about 5 pages worth of static text that needs to appear at the top of my report, so I put it in the report header section. I have a page footer section on the page that shows the page number. This does not show, and I suspect it has something to do with the long report header. How can I make the page footer show with a large report header?
Edit: The Page Footer is actually appearing once on the last page. The Report Header takes up 5 pages and there isn't a page footer on any of those pages.
Can you split static text between many header (sub)sections (in a way that every section has about pageful of text)? May help.
I had exactly the same problem. My report header was very long and the page number only was appearing at last page. The problem was that i had my page number in the Report Footer. Then i realize that i had a Page Footer section and moved the page number there. I also changed the section properties (it had the No Drill down option checked).
Now i have the same big header with the page number on all pages.

Ken Hammady has a solution for crosstabs at

It can be adapted to work with long texts in textboxes.
I moved all of my text from the Report Header to the Report Footer, and the page numbers will print. I will add a subreport to show my detailed data.
