How to change the pagesize of a report?

Hi,
I'm confused by a 100%-standardproblem but didn't figure it out yet :-(
I want to decrease the pagesize of a report (output into pdf), so the "white area" in acrobat reader should be smaller then a4 (standard).
My "solution": I moved and resized the border of the mainsection - now the content is at it's right place, but the whole page (white area) is still to large.
Even if I create new (=empty) report, I don't know where to change the size of the report.
I'm using Report Builder 9.0.4.0.21.
Can somebody please help me with this? Thank's a lot. :-)

You should be able to do that by so:
Go into the object navigator. Click on Paper Layout, and click on the Main Section label (not the plus sign). Hit F4 for properties - height and width are there. I think if you just changed those to what A4 is designated as, it should work.
Note if you use a header/footer page, you would need to do the same to those pages as well.
Hope that helps as I have not actually needed to do this yet. Good luck!

  • How to change the width of PDF report

    When i download an interactive report to a PDF. All the columns will have the same width, how to change the width of the column?
    Thanks,
    Jen

    I don't think its possible for downloading from interactive report but let's see if anyone else has got a work around.
    The other way to have absolute control over report layout is to create reports using 'Report Query' & 'Report Layout' under 'Shared Components'.

  • How to change the Browser title when report runs on the web?

    Hi folks,
    How to change the title of the browser when I run my report on the web? Iam using Internet explorer and Reports 6i. Is it possible in 6i or 10g reports?
    Could you please tell me the step by step procedure ?
    Right now the browser is displaying the URL when I run the report with format = PDF.
    Thanks.

    It works for me. I don't see why you have a problem with >this code.
    Can you look at the source code of the html >file that was created (so, not in the browser, but in a >text editor). What do the header and title look like?The Html code in the file is same as the above code I specified. Actually I copied the same code and pasted here. But when I run the html file the Title shows up.
    Don't put </html> there. Maybe that helps. I tried this, but it did not work.
    Please let me know is there any way to set it dynamically inside the triggers using SRW built_in.
    Thanks alot.

  • How to change the database in Crystal reports

    To give an overview there is one project going on where the oracle database is getting migrated from 10g to 11g.
    All the details of database like IP, port etc are changing as part of this.
    I can see the driver name configured as crdb_ado (Custom driver).
    We have an test environment for 11g against which we have to point all the reports and test it.
    Could you please let me know the below queries
    Where and how to change the IP details in the crystal reports to point to new test and prod databases.
    Overview on this crdb_ado driver
      Basically the database is getting changed and we want the reports to point and run from the new database.
    Thanks

    Hi Vissu,
    Thanks for your reply.
    We need to change the database from the reports which are already running from central management console.
    I can see a custom driver crdb_ado is being used and it connects to a database.
    Could you please let me know where the database configuration is done.
    Ideally we need to add one more database to a config file which i am not able to find.
    I guess it should be similar to tnsnames.ora file in oracle where the different databases are stored.
    From the above image I would like to know where the server details (NECTAR_Prod) would be configured.
    Thanks in advance

  • How to change the SQL-Query in (Report in ReportViewer) by running Java App

    Hello,
    Ich have an App which generates dynamicly SQL-Queries. By pressing a button it should generate a report with this generated Query.
    I´m using the ReportViewer.jar. Further is it possilbe to a extra parameters form app which are not in a DB?

    <p>There are a few ways that you can achieve this. If your SQL Queries have their filters modified (ie. WHERE clause) then this can be easily solved by adding report parameters to the Report filter. Search the in-product help for "Record Filter" and you should get a number of helpful resources returned.</p><p>Additionally, you can pass in java.sql.ResultSet objects with a populated recordset of the data you want to show in the report. We don&#39;t currently provide any tools to assist the creation of the code stubs for thick-client applications (like we do for JSP pages) however you can download a collection of thick-client sample code from here:</p><p><a href="http://support.businessobjects.com/communityCS/FilesAndUpdates/crxi_r2_jrc_desktop_samples.zip">http://support.businessobjects.com/communityCS/FilesAndUpdates/crxi_r2_jrc_desktop_samples.zip</a> </p><p>As I mentioned, this sample contains a collection of code snippets.

  • How to change the table's for an existing report

    Hello,
    How can I change the table names for reports created with a different table name? for e.g If I created a report which included a table called "2009_10_example", How can I change that table to a different table "2010_10_example1".
    I am using Crystal reports 2008, and the reports were created using Report Creating Wizard.
    Thanks,
    Abhishek

    In the Database Menu, there is an option Set Datasource Location.  This allows you to pick a table from the current tables used, and select a table to replace it with.  Press the Update button, and Crystal will swap one for the other.  If the field names and data types are all the same, it will automatically change all references throughout the report to the new table's fields.
    May I suggest that your tables are set up improperly if you have to change report code to run it for different months?  The data should all be in one table with dates, and parameters to select the date range to report on.  (That was said in the spirit of helping...)

    Hi All,
    How to change the default IDOC basic type from CREMAS05 to CREMAS04 when sending Vendor Master Data.

    I want to use BD14 to send master data directly, but the program will generate IDOC using CREMAS05. Is there a way that I can change it to CREMAS04? And also for using Change Pointers, I want to use the report RBDMIDOC, but i have the same problem.

    the planning book transport as mentioned by Ian will get your time bucket profiles   to production
    ....along with macros
    Producton systems are usually closed to make planning book changes (the system would be locked - its not an authorization issue)
    its better to transport the planning book with the correct time bucket profile
    P,S: there is a quick and dirty way to make the change you want though without going though the transport...  but if you can transport... do that
