问题
I have a crystal report consisting of several pages. Each page consists of a several fields that are populated from database.
Suppose the following example :
Name : aaaaaa
Education Background:bbbbbbb
Age:cc
In my case the Education Background's details (bbbbbbb here) may consist of several words or several pages. If I set a large space for it, it will waste a big space on report (Yes. May be a paper) in a case of short answer.
How can I eliminate this problem? Does crystal reports provide a way to dynamically expand the space?
回答1:
Not a problem. Assuming these fields are in the Details section,
- Create some Details subsections and move your fields into them (Report->Section Expert->Insert). In your example, you would have "Name" in "Details A", "Education Background" in "Details B", and Age in "Details C".
- Right click on the Education Background field and go to Format Field->Common->Can Grow.
- Make sure that in the design view, all subsections are at the minimum height needed to hold the fields.
Sounds complicated when I write it out like that, but it's not.
