Issue:<br>Daily Report gets generated output and&nbsp;&nbsp;from the first page,and each consecutive page gets thrown off the Page Header is in the middle of the page after the first page<br>on couple pages on 21 page report ?<br><br>Can give some advice?<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;I narrowed it down in the layout model that is my assumption.<br><br>Background:<br>Thin Client Arch.<br>Report that get called up from browser from application server(which contains report server).
 
You're almost certainly correct that the layout model contains the problem.<br>Try looking at the frame layout first, and check that you haven't got any frames overlapping where you wouldn't wish them to be; then check the frame and field attributes for page protection, or for expandable items within non-expandable frames.<br>I hope this helps, it can be tricky to isolate layout problems especially in complex reports.
 
when you say frame layout do mean Main Frame or Repeating Frame or Group Frame<br>Do you mean page protection should be set to yes or no ?<br>For expandable items are your refering to vertical elasticity<br><br>Could I forward u a copy of the report rdf file ?
 
SAL, I'm afraid I meant any and all frames. Yes I did mean vertical elasticity - there are 4 options: fixed, expand (i.e. get bigger if more space is needed for data display), contract (get smaller if not all space needed), and variable (size to fit the data). If you have different setting on objects nested within each other, then they can interact in unexpected ways - try working from the inside out, or vice versa, checking that the setting make sense in terms of the data you're expecting - then look at the data giving the problems, and see if there's anything odd about it (e.g. longer than expected or truncated text). Same thing goes for page protection, which will attempt to ensure that all the data in a frame/object is kept on one page or starts on a new page (in the case of a repeating frame this should be one 'row' rather than the whole data set).<br>N.B. this is all from memory, I moved accounts a while back, and don't have Oracle Developer access at the moment.<br>Best of luck...
