Either use the report footer instead, or create a formula that includes all records:

whilereadingrecords;
""

Insert a group on this and make it your group #1. Then move your group chart into this new group header section.

That worked LB THANKS!!

I might expand on this (I might have started a new thread on this maybe), on how to get a page footer for a sub-report -- this has a caveat -- I am drilling down to the sub-report and i need a page footer at that point.

Is this doable?

Finally small question: where can i find "crystal report design examples" -- just to get idea from the design perspective headers,footers how big, do other designer add a flower here and there -- that sort of thing

Regards

For page footers upon drilldown, make sure you have file->report options->show all group headers checked. This will allow the page footer to appear in the drilldown window. Just use that for your subreport page footer. You can conditionally suppress it with:

drilldowngrouplevel = 0

...so that it doesn't appear before drilldown.

What is the issue with the page footer for the GH#3 chart? If this is a drilldown chart, you could try using the group footer #3 as the page footer, using "print at bottom of page".

This worked -- but needs some other adjustments from my side.

For Page footers on sub-reports that needed drill down -- I will post back here soon (will have to try out your suggestion)

Thanks VERY much for your fast responses.
