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
http://kenhamady.com/cru/archives/87
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.

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.
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,
Chris
if you checked "Clamp Page Footer", the second and last page's height will be cut to shrink!
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'm using Jasper reports. I have a page header, detail & summary band. The page header is repeated on all pages but sometimes when only the summary part moves into last page as the detail gets over in the page before that. The header is not printed on the last page i.e summary page.
Does somebody have any idea as to why the page header is not printed on the summary page. Is there some other way to print header on summary page.
By default, the page header does not apply to the summary band.
Since Jasper 3.6.1, there is a report property that can be used to force the summary band also to have page header, called Summary with Page header and footer. You should check it in iReport, or set isSummaryWithPageHeaderAndFooter="true" in the jasperReport tag.
In previous versions, before 3.7.6, you can put your content on band
'lastPageFooterBand',
Because the header content going to be repeated.
Other solution is:
add a new band into your report.
In my case, I was using ireport 3.0. I tested the two situations and worked perfectly.
Let's say I have a logo that I want to appear in the same place on a set of reports (many files). Is there a way for me to put that logo into the equivalent of a master page and apply that master page to all the pages of my reports? I'd like the logo to appear in the same place on a variety of documents without having to mess around with copypasta.
Using CR 9.2 (ouch, call the archeology dept eh?).
The easiest way to do this is to add a new header or footer section that includes your logo.
In Crystal 2008 (sorry, it's all I have) this is done by right clicking on any of the header/footer sections (e.g. Report header, page header, group footer, etc.) and then selecting "Insert Section Below".
This gets you a new section that will repeat at the top or bottom of every new section/page. Any logos pasted into a page header will be reused for each page.
Note that you can have as many "page header" sections as you want if you find it helpful to split up the header into multiple vertically stacked sections.
Years ago they used to have an page header and page footer. Not sure about the current version of Crystal Reports.
you can create a report as [MasterReport] with the logo in any where of it then you should insert a subreport into it. MasterReport equivalent of the master page and the subreport is like the placeHolders in asp.net and you can create this subreport like a dynamic report.
When you add a subreport to a report, crystal reporter creates a copy of subreport and save it into main report so you can not change the subreport by code at run time.
