Hi I'm new to using Crystal Report XI and I'm having a difficult time with this issue.
I run a billing statement using Crystal Report Monthly. And I process at least a thousand statements on one PDF. The header ie: "DB---Break" tells our system when a participant statement ends and a new statement begins (Mailing Purposes).
However, if a participant has an overflow of statements that goes onto the the next page. The header "DB--Break" cuts off that statement for that participant.
With all that being said, I'm currently trying to find a way to suppress the header on the second page of the participant who has a overflow of information. How would go about resolving this? Thanks in advance
Example:
DB----Break (Header)
Joe Smith, (Name)
TEXT TEXT TEXT (body)
--------Break in Page----------
DB--Break (Need to suppress this Header)
TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT (continuation of body from John Smith)
--------Break in Page----
DB----Break (Header)
Sarah Johnson, ( New Participant Begins)
TEXT TEXT TEXT (Body)
Try this:
Right click on Header -> Select Section Expert.
Highlight the header you want to suppress. On the Common tab to the right check the supress checkbox
Then click on the formula x+2 button and enter the following formula:
pagenumber > 1 and click on Save and Close.
This should suppress the header section on second page.

I uncheck "Allow row to break across pages" for a table's properties So, the table is shown on a new page to ensure that all the content is on one page, this works fine. But Word generates a blank space before the page break, I need to replace it with some text for a legal reason. I can't use a watermark or shapes because un Oracle BI Publisher only prints it on PDF and I need to export it to a docx.
The data is dynamic, so sometimes the text before the table and the text inside the table may change.

I need some like this https://imgur.com/a/ySitL
MS Office support told me that it can't be done with Word...
Maybe with VBA code?

Thanks Cindy for your help.
I have a table into another table many paragraphs, checkbox etc and they are fitting on a new page. It's working.
I understand there isn't a page break.
It's Paragraph mark.
But what I need to do is insert a kind of mark, a text like XXXX,-----------, Instead of leaving "free space",
It's a requirement not change the font size or another text format.
For a legal requirement, some paragraph must fit on a new page and "blank spaces" replaced by a kind of mark.
I can't hard code it because in several cases not all the paragraphs or section in a page will be shown and I don't know by default when a new page is needed.
I am available to use macros or anything.
What you could do is insert a page-size table into a textbox in the page header and format the body text with a white background. The table will thus be hidden behind any text on the page, but not otherwise (provided you don't pad unused space with empty paragraphs, etc.).
I'm referring to this post here:CorelDraw X6 Macro to insert Date using DTPicker Control
I am creating a template for everyday use for saving artwork proofs to send onto customers for visual approval. I'd like the following boxes to auto populate the following information:
1. A box that will populate today's date
2. A box that will populate the work order number based on the first 6 digits of the filename
3. A box that will populate the filename as a whole
The rectangles/boxes will already be in the document that gets imported. I just want to create a macro, or multiple...to click in order to fill these boxes before exporting to a PDF for customers approval.
I'm a total coding n00b and can't find specific directions on where to copy the code listed in the link above.
In the Corel Draw menu, go to "Tools" then "Macros" then "Macro editor".
After that, you can paste it in the right hand side of the screen, on the white empty box.
That should do it.
I have to format a text based on indentation.
The steps are :
User selects a table on a page
Presses a button
The table gets indented exactly as the text above ( no gaps at all)
I know MSFT gives little less indentation to the table, so they look little askew.
I know how to change the indent of the selected table by the command
Selection.Tables(1).Rows.LeftIndent = <Value_as_that_of_the_text_above>
but I don't know how do I get the indentation of the text above, considering only table has been selected not the text above. Any help is appreciated.
You will need to get all the paragraphs of the document(try this). Then get the last paragraph on the page indent.
Today I discovered the expression "&[Page]" in some old VB code. It seems to hold a pagenumber in case some document would get printed. I (VB novice!) didn't know this existed but it did help me out seriously today! So I wonder whether there are more such "hidden" variables. Where can I find an overview?
I thought this is an "environment variable" or a "system variable" but Googling these seems to suggest that "&[Page]" belongs to neither category.
These are Header and Footer elements.
From the Header and footer tools (image from excel 2010):
Click this button to:
Page Number: Insert the &[Page] code that puts in the current page number.
Number of Pages: Insert the &[Pages] code that puts in the total number of pages.
Current Date: Insert the &[Date] code that puts in the current date.
Current Time: Insert the &[Time] code that puts in the current time.
File Path: Insert the &[Path]&[File] codes that put in the directory path along with the name of the workbook file.
File Name: Insert the &[File] code that puts in the name of the workbook file.
Sheet Name: Insert the &[Tab] code that puts in the name of the worksheet as shown on the sheet tab.
Picture: Insert the &[Picture] code that inserts the image that you select from the Insert Picture dialog box that shows the contents of the my Pictures folder on your computer by default.
Format Picture: Apply the formatting that you choose from the Format Picture dialog box to the &[Picture] code that you enter with the Insert Picture button without adding any code of its own.
I'm putting together a template in Word, using a form for the user to fill in to then populate some of the document.
The bit I'm currently stuck on is at the end of the document, where the cc's are listed.
The form has a multiline text box into which the user puts in their cc's, one per line.
I then want to add to the end of the document the contents of the text box, but in the right format. Specifically, it should look like:
cc: First CC contact
Second CC contact
so on and so forth
I attempted to do this using 2 bookmarks, so my code currently is:
' If 'CC' box has content, add it
If doc_CC.TextLength > 0 Then
.Bookmarks("CC").Range.Text = vbCr + "cc:"
.Bookmarks("CCs").Range.Paragraphs.Indent
.Bookmarks("CCs").Range.Text = doc_CC + vbCr
End If
However, when this is run, on the page it looks like:
cc: first contact
second contact
and so on
Realise that the 2 bookmark method is a bit messy but it seemed like a good idea at the time - obviously this is not the case! Have done some searching for a way to do it with Split but am not making much progress down this path - suspect I'm googling for the wrong thing.
How do I do this so that the formatting is as desired? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Try inserting a tab character? + Chr(9) or even + vbTab may work.
Have found a work around which, while doesn't answer the actual question of how to do it, does produce a result to the same effect.
Have used a 2 column table without no lines instead with contents of a1 being "cc:" and contents of a2 being whatever was entered into the multiline text box. If there is nothing in the text box, then the table is deleted.
I'll keep on eye on this question though so if some one does have the proper answer I can mark it accordingly.
Another possibility would be to format the cc paragraph with a hanging indent (like is used for bullets or numbering). Use a newline character - Chr(11) - instead of vbcr to separate each entry. The text should all line up,then...
