I have a report in which i have group footer #3d and #3e.

there is a formula written in group footer #3d to supress some text object if it is a state project,if it federal then i am not suppressing anything.

whenever it is state project there is a free space coming up.

Instead of free space in the middle of the page, i want the next group footer#3e content to continue in this page.

Thanks,
rreddy
 
Go to the Section Expert and select group footer 3d. Click on the formula button to the right of the Suppress checkbox (do NOT check the checkbox!). Enter the formula you're using to suppress to the text object.

This will suppress the entire section instead of just suppressing the text object.

A computer only does what you actually told it to do - not what you thought you told it to do.
 
Thanks for your reponse!

yes, i was doing the exact same thing but the next section is getting continued on the same page(group section #3e) but now i want the group section #3f too to continue on the same page because there is plenty of space in the page
 
Format Gf3e to "Suppress blank section" in the section expert.
