Columns - report footer on new page

[ronniepurpleuk]

Hi All,

I'm producing a report which is split into 2 columns on the page (7.5cm wide each). I have a sum in the Report Footer to add up the total of all the figures in the report. Even though there is enough space on the first page to print the report footer, it is printing it on the next page.

I'm assuming it has something to do with the fact that I am using columns - the width of the data in the report footer is less than 7.5cm.

I've tried everything I can think of in the properties and sorting & grouping but the only way I can get the sum to print on the right page is to put it in the report header so that it is at the top of the page, which doesn't look right. Ideally, I would like it at the bottom right of the page (at the end of the last column.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance

Ronnie

try page setup and adjust the margins, that might help

Ref. adjusting margins in Page Setup - I've already tried that - makes no difference.

Okay - I have solved the problem by creating a main group and putting the sums in the group footer instead of the report footer.

Still don't understand why the report footer has to go onto a separate page though.
