I've created a new report using crystal reports 8.5.
In it, I've used 3 sub reports and they are positioned in main report vertically.
My question is, How can I stop overlapping them with each other and also with the down border of the main report?
thank you
If you split the section they're in into 3 sections (eg, Report Header can divide into Report Header a, Report Header b and Report Header c), and place one subreport in each, the sections will expand to fit their contents in and the subreports should no longer overlap.
One solution that I found is to do following:
Right click on the details page and choose "Section Expert..."
In the opened dialog box Sections column click on
the Details(preferred) or other section and click on Insert button above.
In the newly inserted section add your new sub report.
Thanks

I have a requirement in crystal report, where we have to show details section and report header together, so data will be displayed in a same row and according to the input the detail section can also grow in both direction row wise and column wise. Please use the sample picture for reference.
Is there any way to keep them together like in HTML where we can divide any table into one or more columns?
Any kind of information would be appreciated. Thank you.
In crystal it is not possible to add detail section in report header part..
How ever you can split detail section to multiple layout!!
1 - Right click report body then select Section Expert.
2 - Select multiple column.
3 - Then on layout you can provide detail size and gap detail.
Also you can insert multiple detail section and can swap inside the detail section. but not in report header part
It is possible for this purpose you need to use sub reports.
create a sub report and place in header section. Now limit the width of the sub report to the extent you need.
In sub report place the fields in details and supress rest all sections.
Now you can see header and details in report header..
Can you share along with sub report what you want to view in header?
You can use sub-report or setting up the section expert option.
Go to section expert
step 1: Suppress page header
step 2: At report header mark Underlay Following Section
Section Expert
I put a subreport in the footer of my main report and I set its details section to display five records per page (through the paging tab).
I am sure my query returns nine records.
Upon previewing the report, on the first page, it displays the first five records.
However, on the second page, it also displays the first five records not the remaining four records.
I am not sure where is the problem since I just started using crystal reports. Hope you can help me. Thanks.
You need to set your sub report links.
This will link the data from your main report to your sub report. In Crystal 2008 you right click on the sub report and choose 'Change Sub report links...' option. Then you can select the data to flow from the main report to your sub report. Otherwise your sub report is being viewed as a completely separate report that you are just inserting on top of your main report and it will be the same at every instance.
Also, it might be a good idea to use groups instead of the details section when inserting sub reports.
I have a report with a big title, so this report will have 2 pages with start text, and a small detail page.
How can I create a report with a big title, or 2 different reports to append on to another?
Any Ideia?
My version of iReport is 0.5.
I had a similar problem. I solved it by creating a sub report and using it's Detail section as the report's title page. I then put the sub report into a group header on the main report which would print first on the report. It was a little hokey, but it worked.
I am working with crystal report which has two sub reports. I need to change the positions of theses sub reports dynamically.
Could any help me in this portion?
Place your 2 subreports in separate subsections (i.e. 1 subreport in GH1a and the other in GH1b)
Go into your Section Expert and enter an appropriate formula to suppress each subreport based on your condition.
My Requirement is to show two sub reports in a Report. What I am doing is, I have created two sub-reports and put that into a report.
But the issue is that, both the sub reports are growing (i.e. their height is not static as the number of records are variable). I just want the second sub=report to appear after the end of first sub-report. How can I achieve the same?
You can use the option "Position Type" by selecting "Float" as the value. So based on the first reports size the second one will be adjusted.

You could put the second subreport inside the first subreport, in the page footer. The footer moves down when the detail band grows, so the subreport should always end up underneath the content of the first subreport.

Try to add detail band as many as your subreport to your main report (You can right click the detail band and choose "Add another detail band"). And place each subreport on every detail band that you make.
Detail band have ability to shrink and grow depend on your data row and it will fit nicely to your report.
