anyone know how to limit the number of cross tab columns per page? it would solve virtual page problems but I don't know how to do it...
 
Not sure what the difficulty is with virtual pages, but you can select any row and resize it (height and width), so by increasing the height you will have less rows.

This is based on a suggestion by Ken Hamady in thread 149-575997 as fleshed out by Carynbo. Create a group based on your crosstab column field. Let's say it's a simple field that contains values from A to Z. Then write a formula {@colsperpage}:

if {table.field} in ["A" to "M"] then 1 else 2

Group on this formula in your main report, and then place the crosstab in the group header or footer. Then go to format section and for the section where you placed the crosstab, check "new page after."
