How to print all rows in one page with Crystal Reports - crystal-reports

I am using Crystal Reports 2011. I am totally new to crystal reports and reporting tools in general. I just added my data fields to the details section, but instead of showing all the rows in one page, a new page is created for each row. I did not use any grouping or change the section paging settings.
This only happens for a blank report, when using the report wizard it works fine, but I can't see the difference between what I did and what the report wizard did.

The problem seems to have been a mix up with the sections, I've understood how these work now and got it to work. Thanks for the help.
I had 2 details section, so for every row in details1 it also displayed the information of details2 (which I only wanted to appear once). So I moved the data of details2 into a report footer.

Right click on your report and then go to Section Expert check Is Keep togather is checked
or New Page after or before in not checked.

Make sure that "New Page After" and "New Page Before" are not ticked. Also, Adjust the section sizes to the minimum you need.
In general, it sounds like you have a row data, inserted into the page header/footer section instead of the details section and therefore presented in each page...

Data drops off from crystal reports

I have a report that prints data in different details sections.
In the details b section I have the "Suppress Blank section" enabled in the section expert.
There is no problem when I run the report from crystal (the report preview shows all the data).
When the same report is run from an application where nothing but just conversion of the crystal data into PDF happens, I have some data missing.
However if I disable the "Suppress Blank section", all works fine.
I am not able to resolve this, any help or pointers would be helpful. Couldn't find a similar problem reported online.
I found the solution, it worked after I suppressed each element separately in the detail section when it was blank.

IReport Document Has No Pages

I have encountered same problem 'Document Has No Pages' issue as described in Jasper Reports And IReport Issue. I applied the solution provided in the given link and it started working. I am stuck behind the concept. My main point of concern is, when we are using detail band and we don't give a data query it gives Document has No Pages error. As soon as we give a dummy query in data query, it starts working. Kindly note that, i am using a subDataSet for a table component. That's where IReport generates this issue. Any pointers would be helpful.
Keep in mind that This is not an error but this is how it is configured to do.
This happens when you don't have results to display in the report from the database. But still you can set option what to do in this situation.
In Jaspersoft iReport 5.6.0
1. right click the report
2. Go to properties
3. Find **When No Data**
4. Select one from the options
There you'll see some options as No Section, No Detail, Blank Page, No Data Section, No pages.
Choose the one suits you. -_(--)-_

Crystal report with lot columns across pages

I have report with 21 column and thousands rows.
Question is: Can I display 1-10 column on first page and 11-21 column on second page.
I'm not sure it can be done. There are some options you could try, like a cross-tab report, but usually when I run into this issue I simply set my report page up to display in landscape and then format it accordingly.
Hope that helps,
Chris
EDIT:
SAP came through again. I knew if it could be done at all it needed to be with the use of a subreport. Please see this post which has step-by-step instructions on how to achieve what you are after.

Should a suppressed section in a Crystal Report have any impact on the report?

I'm trying to use Crystal Reports with Microsoft Visual Studio.
Unfortunately I have many problems which aren't easily summarised.
I have a sub-report before my main Grouped section.
When this sub-report inexplicably fails to display the data it should, I'm also losing the page header sections on the report's first page. I don't know of any reason why the sub-report should effect/interact-with the page headers - I have no code or conditions for suppressing the page headers.
So, I tried suppressing the sub-report section - and I still lose my page headers.
Finally, if I delete entirely the sub-report, I get my page headers back.
It doesn't make sense to me.
Any ideas as to what is going on?
Thank you for your help.

Crystal Reports Multiple Columns and Rows

I am trying to put multiple columns and rows in the details section of my crystal report. I essentially want it to have 3 rows of data per line on the report, and span as many pages as needed to fill that space up.
Right now I am only getting one item per page, and some weird artifact on the next page, resulting in 500 rows of data going across 1000 pages. Weird!
I am using 2 views to feed the report, one for header/footer and then the details. The views are linked by date. The database is refreshed daily and only contains the current days data.
I used to use Crystal ages ago but haven't looked at in 5 or 6 years. I know this may be a bit of noob question to some of the more advanced users, but I need help all the same.
SAP Crystal Reports (from about dialog Version 14.0.2)
Thanks so much!
To resolve the paging issue - open the section expert and look in each section for page break set before or after. (It sounds as though a page break may be set on the detail section.)
Do you have any Groups in your report? If so, do you have the 'Keep Group Together' option checked. You can check this in the Report > Group Expert > Options... button > Options tab. If you have that checked, try unchecking that and see if it helps. HTH.
