I have a .rdlc report where I have no header (I have group headers)
I want to put the PageNumber on the group header.
If I use Globals!PageNumber I get this error:
The Value expression for the textrun 'Textbox12.Paragraphs[0].TextRuns[3]' refers to the global variable PageNumber or TotalPages. These global variables can be used only in the page header and page footer
Is there any way I could do this?
If there is no possibility to put this data on a group header...is there any possibility of overlap a header with the group header on a same line?
Global variables can't be used outside of the header/footer, as there is no relationship between the header/footer and body areas. Therefore, there is no easy and precise way to display the page number in the body area.
However, as suggested by user Raymond-Lee in the second link, you can try to calculate it yourself by dividing a given row number by the total number of rows per page (and adding one if the page number will always be the first row). Nonetheless, this would take a bit of effort.
First you need to have the Page Header/Footer showing, then you can add items to it. To show it, right click in the pale yellow area of the Layout view. Then select Page Header and/or Page Footer, this will create another section on your report where you can add items. Or, you can go to the Report menu option and enable the Page Header/Footer from there.

I need a lab report that has several pages. Each test has a unique reference number and I would like it to appear in the header according to what I have on the page. At the moment I only see one reference number and it remains unchanged after switching to another page. See attached image.
If possible, I would like to get rid of the SampleNo column so that its value is only in the header
The easiest way to do this is to reference the the textbox in your tablix that contains the "Sample No.".
Click the textbox that you have highlighted in the tablix, show the properties window (F4 in Visual Studio - can't remember in Report Builder, I think View/Properties).
Find the Name property of the textbox, this is often the name of the field it contains but not always.
In the example below the textbox name is 'oYear`
Next, set the expression in your header to be something like
=FIRST(ReportItems!oYear.Value)
Change oYear to whatever textbox name in your tablix is.
ReportItems refers to the rendered object name so here we just get the first on each page.
Here the first two pages from a small sample of data which groups by year.
In SSRS Report 2016, I have 2 tablixes. The 2nd tablix contains only 4 columns.
When I preview the report, It comes perfectly in one page but when I export the report in PDF format or click on the Print Layout button in the report, the whole 2nd table/tablix moves to the next page.
In my case, the sum (Body Width + Left margin + Right margin) is less than the resulting page width. I set keep_together property to false but the 2nd table keeps rendering on the new page. If the 2nd table has less content then it displays below the first table on the same page and if the content is a little bit large then the whole table shifted to the next page and if the content is too big then it starts displays on the 1st page below the first table on the same page and continues on next pages with the remaining content. All the thing is happening when I am exporting report in PDF format, not on report preview.
Any solution for this?
Do you have dynamic col grouping or hidden textboxes ? in this case you need to make sure that when all the col visible on the reports it must have sum of width and margins less than the reports width.
Cross check the report width from properties window sometimes it contains white spaces because of which this happens.
Check whether you have added a page break after the tablix. If you did, and if there is nothing else to show after the tablix, then it will display blank on the next page.
Another possible reason that may bring blank page is that there exists large white space between tablix and page footer.
Please try these points once. Hope it resolve your issue.
I have problem with SSRS 2008

My problem is that even after I set Add a page break before for table of 'Student Enrichment Programme', when I export to pdf file, the content of Student Enrichment Programme doesn't start at new page. Please take a look at the picture belows:

try on the report on Tablix Properties
To add a page break to a data region
1 On the design surface, right-click the corner handle of data region and then click Tablix Properties.
2 On the General tab, under Page break options, select one of the following options:
- Add a page break before. Select this option when you want to add a page break before the table.
- Add a page break after. Select this option when you want to add a page break after the table.
- Fit table on one page if possible. Select this option when you want the data to stay on one page.
On the design surface, right-click the corner handle of data region and then click Tablix Properties.
After that On the General tab, under Page break options, select one of the following options

I am new to this so I hope my question is relevant and useful to others.
I have a bigcommerce store and I removed the side category display panel from the category page (I did not want a side category to dispay) but this has now left me with only 4 columns of products displayed on a page 5 columns wide. Could any kind person tell me how to add an extra column of products, so that the page width is full again, or how to alter the image size so that 4 columns of product images fills the space previously occupied by 4+sidecategory ?
To change the layout of your category page you require to do change in category.html. As per your requirement you need to remove the below code from the category.html (Any change in this file will reflect in all your category pages)
<div class="Left fleft">
%%SNIPPET_SubCategories%%
%%Panel.SideCategoryShopByPrice%%
</div>
I am saying to remove the entire side column div because you want the full page layout but you can just remove the particular snippets or panels which you don't want but with that sometime what happens is like any panel which is currently not active from admin panel but later whenever it will active then it shows the problem like your layout will display with side column having that particular panel and also your wide column (products column) with 5 products in a row.
After this you have to do change in css file named styles.css, In this file search for the .ProductList li in which you can see the width which is given in percentage to 25 so please make it to 20.
Please save the above files and you can see the changes.
Thanks.
So I am running into the problem where my report header is being displayed on every page, but I only want to display it on the first page. The solution that people on this forum have given is to just put the header in the main content. The problem with this is that my header shows the page number + total pages (i.e. Page 1 of 3 pages). I cannot move my header to the body because I will lose access the page numbers. For some reason, Report Builder will only allow you to have access to the page numbers via the header. Does anyone have any solution to this problem?
Write an expression to hide the textboxes that hold the header information.
The expression would look like this:
=iif(Globals!PageNumber = 1, FALSE, TRUE)
To get to the expression property:
right-click text box >> text box properties >> visibility >> select "Show or hide based on expression" >> insert expression above
cheers
I had the same issue, where I only wanted the header to show on the first page. The solution I came up with was to stick all of my objects from the header into a rectangle, so it was now acting as a container. I then placed that container into the body. In the report properties, in the code section, I borrowed from this post Access Page number in report body In SSRS to create functions, which would allow me to pull the page numbers into the body section. Then in my rectangle/container, I set the visibility property to =code.PageNumber>1. I hope this helps!
I did this, just to make it easier the two functions you want to add to the Report that were linked above are,...
Function PageNumber() As String
Return Me.Report.Globals!PageNumber
End Function
Function TotalPages() As String
Return Me.Report.Globals!TotalPages
End Function
