DataReport - Sections do not fit vertically on the page.

[stnkyminky]

I am attempting to print a label that is 4" x 1". I have set the properties for the printer and created a datareport with acceptable dimensions. I have adjusted the margins(left, right, top, bottom) to 0. When I try to print I get the error message, "Sections do not fit vertically on the page." Can anyone shed some light? thanks in advance.

Could the 'setting the printer properties' be the problem?

Try resetting your printer properties to normal 8 1/2 x 11, then try running your report again.

Not sure, but it might be worth a shot.

Also... while I have your attention... do u know of anyway to print columns of information using the datareport in VB? I am trying to create mailing labels (3 columns down the length of the page).

Thanks and good luck

I forget to set the paper orientation(programatically) to portrait.....

Are you using a data environment with the reports? Some projects I have created unbound datareports. By using this method I'm sure you could create any style report you want.
