Controlling Vertical Spacing in Table/Report

Developers,
I'm VERY new to MRS and I'm trying to format a report. I have a Header,
Detail, and Footer. In the Detail section, I have a table containing my
report items. Each cell contains variable(s).
Well, I have an address, and I want the Verticle Spacing between the lines
to be less than it currently is. I've been collapsing the table so that the
cells are so small I can't even read my variable names. This seems to work,
but I'm wondering:
Q. Is there a more graceful way to reduce the vertical spacing in my
table/report?
Please write soon! Thanks!!I dont think there is any. The only other thing you can try if making
the top and bottom padding 0.

Continue table only on next page

Hello!
I have 3 elements in a report, a header, a body containing a table and a
footer. The header and footer does not need to be a "header" or a "footer".
I want the footer to be placed at the bottom of the page below the allocated
space for the body (regardless how many rows there are in the list) and I
want the list to continue on the next page if it exceeds the allocated space
for the body and finally I want the footer only to be on the first page. The
footer cannot be a table footer.
How can this be done?
For the footer I have tried:
1. If I use a footer to the bank giro my only choice is
"printonlastpage=false" but then, if there are 3 or more pages it would be
printed on page 1, page 2 etc but not on the last page.
2. If I use a textbox below the table containing the invoice items I cannot
find a method to only put the textbox only on the first page, it will only
be on the last page, after the invoiceitems table on the last page.
Thanks,
MariusMarius,
I posted a sample RDL for the problem you posted on June 22, 2004 - Making
an invoice. Please let me know if that proposed solution meets your
requirements. If I am not mistaken this new request deals with the same
issue.
