page setup parameters

I have a report (.rdl) that I created in Visual Studio. Is there any way to
send the page setup parameters along with the report so that the user isn't
required to fiddle with the page setup? For example, I have a report that
prints in landscape on legal paper, I want them to be able to click print and
have it output with the landscape/legal setup as opposed to having to set
that up in a print dialog box. I can see the margin setup, page width and
Height in VS, but these don't affect the paper or orientation settings.
Any ideas?I have same issue on Margine setting once i put it in production, the report
layout are changed and it is not what i want.
Can you solve it'

will get you the Landscape option.
Ie. for Letter Width=11in and Height=8.5in.
Choosing the paper is a bit different since it depends on the printer for
the local computer. However to get this to happen you can set the default
printer and paper from the windows printers/faxes option. This will then
default in to that box when they click print.
Hope this helps,

page setup on crystal report 8.5

dear babu,
i want to ask you a question on crystal report 8.5.
i'm using crystal report viewer from visual basic 6.0 to view reports but i'm found problems to setup page margin until this time. can you help me for a while ??

how to view page setup on my crystal report viewer so end user have flexibility to customize the margin ??

thanks for your help.

emmileI think you cannot do that at run time
You need to design it in Design time

Page Setup disabled in Report Designer

I'm trying to change the snap-to grid functionality in a SRS 2005 Report Design (within VS 2005). I tried the same steps in the following post, without success. Based on the SRS help, it appears you change Grid Settings by accessing the File > Page Setup dialog, but the Page Setup (along with Print) is disabled.

Maybe these are instructions for Report Builder only? If so, how do you adjust the Grid Settings (to turn off the "snap" functionality) for a SRS Report project in Visual Studio?

Thanks,

Michael

Hello Michael,

From the Report menu, select Report Properties, then in the General tab, uncheck the 'Snap to grid' checkbox.

Hope this helps.

Jarret,

That was so easy!

I thought I was seeing all the available properties by right-clicking on the report and selecting 'Properties'.

Great help!

Thanks,
Michael

Page Setup button in Report Viewer object

I have develop a Windows Form Application that have a Report Viewer object
that rendering a report .rdlc.
I have a problem with the PageSetup Button. The button for set the layout of
the page. If I click that button the type of the page is on Letter format and
i must always set the margin on A4 format of the page before print the
report. But that appends in someone PC...unfortunately it appends on the PC
of the client (in the driver of the printer the page layout is set to A4).
How I can resolve that problem?
Another problem is the set of the margin in PageSetup Button.
If I click on 'Page setup' button the margins left & right are not what I
set on the rdlc file at design time (0,5cm) they are 2 mm
If I click OK on the 'Page Setup' form the Report margins change to the
margins from 'Page setup'
If I open ''Page setup' again the margin settings are now less than
previously set and clicking OK results in the report margins changing again
The margin change from 2 to 0,8 -> from 0,8 to 0,3 -> from 0,3 to 0,1 ->
from 0,1 to 0.
I have Visual Studio 2005 service pack 1Are you doing the 'ChangeService' voodoo that needs to be done to save the
report?
Check 'www.gotreportviewer.com' for an example at what you are doing.
I am no expert at SSRS myself.. just started my fight with it last week so...

Page Setup

Hi There,

I want to build a report in Crystal Reports XI but the problem is that i have to report on around 20-30 fields.

Is there a way to increase the width of the reporting page as I'm not able to increase it by more than A3 size.

Please help.

regards
PrashU can increase the size of the sheet provided that ur printer supports that particular sheet. Else u can try using the custom settings to set the size of the page. But then it might not print if your printer does not support that particular size.|||Thnx for the advice, but how can i do the custom setting.|||In ver 8.5, select

File --> Printer Setup

click on properties button and select paper tab. In the dialog box, u can see a "custom" button next to the "size" drop down list. You can click on the custom button and set the custom size of the page.

But note that, the custom button will be disabled if the printer does not support it.

reporting.Up at the top click on Report, then go to report properties. Go to the layout
tab and change the dimension to landscape view.

appropriately.

landscape, otherwise it is portrait. Reporting Services has no notion of the
rotation of the paper in the printer. It is up to the applications that
consume the output (Acrobat reader, print control) to determine the correct
printer settings to best render the specified page size.
