Page Break Issue - Excel 2013

I'm about to explode, trying to figure out why this problem is happening. I have two users who are opening
an Excel file from the same location, and they're doing their own modifications/saves. When one user opens the document and prints, the Print Preview shows 12 pages, and there are no problems. When the other user opens the same file and prints, there are 18
pages.
Throughout those 18 pages, there are several blank pages interspersed with populated ones, and there are also
a couple of pages with one line or so, from the end of a previous page. If I go to View>>Page Break Preview, this extended document shows little slivers of extra pages. The top of those little "pages" are dashed, and the bottom line is the
solid page-break, for the next page.
Why would this be happening to one user, but not the other? They're both opening the exact same page/template.
Oh, and as a side note, I'm also getting 18 pages with blanks/single-lines, when I open the file. Is there an advanced setting that the 12-page user has checked in Excel that I'm missing? Am I providing enough information?
Any help is massively appreciated.
- Thanks

It's probably caused by a difference in printers. Excel uses the printer settings to place page breaks
Some printers, e.g. inkjet printers, have a smaller printable area than others, e.g. laser printers. As a result, less information will fit on a page.
The worksheet apparently also has manually set page breaks.
Let's take a simple example: the used area of the worksheet has 94 used rows, and a manual page break has been set below row 47. I'll assume that the used area is rather narrow.
On printer A, 48 rows fit on a page. So the first 47 rows will be printed on page 1, and the next 47 rows on page 2.
On printer B, only 46 rows fit on a page because it has a smaller printable area. So the first 46 rows will be printed on page 1, the 47th row on page 2 (not more, because there is a manual page break below row 47). The next 46 rows will be printed on page
3, and the 94th and last row on page 4.

Upgrading reports from 6i to 10g r2 : page break issue

Hi All
we have 150 business critical reports that we are upgrading to 10g. When we run the reports to browser, page break in the browser does not coincide with the report page break. I am getting headings in the middle of pages, how do I fix it?
This is urgent, any help is appreciated.

When we changed the reports output to PDF instead of HTML. The pagebreak issue is no longer an issue.
Have anyone done any benchmark against performance and cpu utilization in using pdf format to generate and display reports.

Page Break Issue

Hi All,
I would need to apply page break on one BI Publisher report.
For each empoyee the result should get displayed in separate page. I have made Emplid as Group by field in the rtf and applyied <?split-by-page-break:?> on this group.
I have the below tags in my rtf...
<?for-each-group:ROW;./Emplid?>
data filed1,data filed2..................
<?split-by-page-break:?><?end for-each-group?>
If rtf file is having one page of report fileds and applied <?split-by-page-break:?> at end of the group, the PDF output places the page-breaks perfectly. In a case of report fileds are in more than one page(rtf contains 2 pages of code) and If I apply <?split-by-page-break:?> at the end of the group. So the report is not making page breaks rather it shows continues data.
I am using BI 10.1.3.3.2 and word2007. Is the version makes any difference? Can you pls help me on this?
Thanks in advance!!!
Regards,
Ramesh

The scenario directly below puts an extra line on the top of the page after a group page break:
<?for-each-group:ROW;.//row?>
data filed1,data filed2..................
<?split-by-page-break:?><?end for-each-group?>
The scenario directly works perfectly, no extral line:
<?for-each-group:.//row?><xsl:attribute name="break-before">page</xsl:attribute>
data filed1,data filed2..................
<?end for-each?>
Thanks for this one!

Page break issue with subform AddInstance

I would like the table on page 4 of this form --- http://www.tahc.state.tx.us/10-09_TrichomoniasisEpiInvestigation.pdf --- to be allowed to break across a page if necessary. I want the button on that page to add another instance of the table at the top of the next available page.
I am clearly missing something about subforms and overflow because in LCD, this is a 5-page form. When it's opened in Acrobat, it's a 7-page form (the table displays on page 6) and and the table extends past the bottom of the page so that the button is not visible.
Any leads on how I can fix this? Thanks.

Thank you for the tip. Your fix is a big step in the right direction --- the form renders as it should but only if I don't enable usage rights for Reader. After usage rights are enabled, the page break problems reappear and the blank table runs off the bottom of the page. Do you know why this occurs? (I've reposted your fixed form with user rights enabled---http://www.tahc.state.tx.us/10-09_TrichomoniasisEpiInvestigation.pdf.) Thanks again.

Xml report:Page break issue

Hi I am working on PO Printing Report.There are mainly three section .1 is Header part which contains informaition like Bill to Address Ship to address,vendor address payment terms etc,middle part contais lots of information like header notes,supplier header note,note to vendor ,ship instruction,line notes ,if po cancelled then its informaition,if any line gets cancelled than the same information , all lines for this PO and many more.After this section we have footer like part which have total column and signature.The total and signature are dynamic.i.e should appean in last page only.The last page of report for a PO conatains a image Terms And Condtion.
Now problem is as there are lots of data in middle part ,It pushes the footer part to the next page.I need to break the page after certain height of table or certain no of records in table so as to have footer remain in each page.
Is there any way to fix no of records in middle part or calculate heigth of table at run time ...when it reaches to its max height ,I break the page.
Or I include the footer section in page footer but as its dynamic How can I get total column value and signature url dynamically.
Please suggest me how to achieve this.....

Welcome to the forum !
I don't see your report, but I'm almost sure that one of your data exceeds field size. To fix it, try set for all your report items (frames, fields, repeating frames) vertical elasticity to variable and horizontal elasticity to fixed. It should fix your problem. Afterwards you can investigate which filed/frame causes an error, setting back elasticity of your items

Handling page breaks in Crystal Reports XI when exporting to Excel

We generate reports in Crystal Reports and programmatically export them to Excel for our end users, so the user receives both an .rpt and .xls version. We are upgrading from Crystal 8.5 to Crystal XI and have found with some of our reports that the page breaks in Excel are different in Crystal XI than in 8.5. The first page will fill to the end and then the next page will contain a few lines of data, the next will be full and the next will contains a few lines. Viewing the Excel page breaks, there are soft breaks before the short pages and hard breaks before the long pages. It's as if there is too much data defined for each page so it spills onto the next page before creating another hard page break. In Crystal 8.5, the paging was continuous as expected. Is there any way to fix this in Crystal XI?

Please note, this forum is dedicated to topics related to legacy SDKs, including the Report Designer Component (RDC), OCX, VCL, and Crystal Reports Print Engine (CRPE).
As the issue you are encountering is in the CR designer, please post your query to the Crystal Reports Design forum at:
SAP Crystal Reports
I'd also suggest adding more detail to your query; version of Crystal Reports used, is this an upgrade issue, new report issue, etc., etc.
Thank you for your understanding,

Excel 2013 not responding when doing refresh all for enbedded quires.

System:
Windows 8.1
Intel I7 620 CPU
12 GB ram
Office 2013
Issue 1:
I have a excel file with 29 data from WEB quires. These are quires for stock data and the only difference in them is the ticker symbol. When I request a refresh all Excel goes into a not-responding mode and I have to quit the program to stop it. This same
file ran OK in Excel 2010. I have the data on sheet one and about half the quires on sheet 2 and the remaining quires on sheet 3. Each quire downloads data a small table and cells in sheet one reference cells in sheet two and three. Two cells are accessed
from each table. I had a Microsoft support person on the line today and she had me repair office, which didn't help. I removed Sheet 2 and Sheet 3 and redid all the quires and that didn't help. Each quire can be refreshed individually.
I also have a laptop with Office 2013 and Excel has the same problem with the same file.
Issue 2:
Each row holds information about a given stock and gets current stock price and dividend percent from its quire table. The stock price comes from column A and the dividend percent come from column C two rows below the row the price is in. Every
time a do a refresh the cell that references the data in Column C comes from two rows below the row it should come from. This does not happen for every stock only some of them. The reference to the data from the A column is always correct. This problem was
happening in Excel 2010 too.

Hi,
To your first issue:
Excel 2013 not responding may be caused by some reasons. Let's do some tests to narrow down the issue:
Method 1: Verify/install the latest updates
Method 2: Start Excel in safe mode
Method 3: Investigate possible issues with add-ins
Method 4: Check whether your antivirus software is up to date or is conflicting with Excel
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2758592/en-gb
If the issue still exists, please upload the event log in the thread, I'll do more deeply
research.
To your second issue, would you like to upload a sample of the Excel file by using SkyDrive? I want to test in my PC.

George Zhao

Report page break not correct in browser

Hi all
I have 150+ reports that I am converting from 6i to 10g. These repors print correctly in 6i (client SErver) with page break at proper places. When I run the same report on web, the page breaks in the reports are converted to lines in the html output. Also the page headers appearin the middle of the page. Page break seems to be controlled by the browser and not by report. How do I make the report page break the same way as in 6i.
any help is appreciated. We are in the middle of testing and the users will not sign off until this is resolved.

SET
System parameter MODE = Default
On Report Level Property Sheet
Under Report Escapes
SET After Page Value =
<table style="page-break-before: always;height=0"></table>
Run reports as DESFORMAT=HTML
This will resolve the Page Break issue.
Unfortunately, printing reports from browser will generate a blank last page.
Perhaps the command line parm BLANKPAGES=NO will work for you...
I am told it does not work because printing is a browser issue not a reports issue...

Matrix exporting to excel with empty columns, with page break option of "Between each instance of a group" selected.

I am working with Report Builder 3.0 I am using a matrix to produce grouped data on separate worksheets in excel.
The select is:
SELECT ID, Measurement, Value, [Date] FROM Measurements_Report. (please ignore the underscores they are just for formatting)
The contents of the Measurements_Report table:
ID__Measurement__Value__[Date]
1___Hot_________33_____10/1/2014
2___Hot_________44_____10/2/2014
3___Cold_________55_____10/2/2014
The matrix contains a single row group based on the field "measurement". The Measurement group has the page break option of "Between each instance of a group" selected.
There is a column group based on the field "Date".
When this is matrix is exported to excel on the first worksheet (Hot) there are three columns as shown below:
ID__10/1/2014____10/2/2014___10/2/1014
1___33
2_______________44
Notice the last column doesn't have a value.
On the second worksheet (Cold) there are also three columns as shown below:
ID__10/1/2014___10/2/2014___10/2/1014
3__________________________55
This time notice there is only one row and only a value in the last column.
I only want the columns with data for that worksheet to show up. How can I remove these empty/duplicate columns? Hopefully there is a simple fix. Thanks ahead of time.

With the following contents of the Measurements_Report table:
ID__Measurement__Value__[Date]
1___Hot_________33______10/1/2014
2___Hot_________43______10/1/2014
2___Hot_________44______10/2/2014
3___Cold________55______10/2/2014
Returns on the first tab (Hot):
ID__10/1/2014____10/1/2014____10/2/2014
1___33
2_________________43
2______________________________44
In the excel worksheet it contains a separate column for each date with a value. Thanks again!
Why is the same date repeating on multiple columns? Do you've the time part also returned from database?

In the template I group the data based on CLASSIFICATION and then sort on the same column CLASSIFICATION. I have a page-break applied for every group.
When I generate the PDF, I am not getting the page-breaks for every group. Instead some of them are displayed in the same page.
But when I remove the sorting that I had in the template on the column CLASSIFICATION, I am getting the output in the desired way but not in a sorted order.

Hi All,
I am using MS-WORD 2007 and BI Publisher desktop 10.1.3.3.3.
When I use split-by-page-break, splitting is performed for every line .. but not for group of lines.
Can anybody throw some light on this?
FYI...
I am using this code:
?if: position() mod 6= 0?
?split-by-page-break:?
?end if?
(Of course with in tags)
in G_LINES loop.
Can anybody help me out :-(

Smartform issue with page break

Hi All,
I have an unusual issue with page break. Here is my scenario, I have a group of items in my table main area and for each group there is sort of header that prints. Similarly there are multiple groups needing a header whenever there is a new group printing. So far it prints fine. But whenever there is a page break and when items from the same group also print on the next page the same header needs to print on the top of next page similar to how the header area repeats on each page. Unfortunately I did not see any page break event for table main area.
Here is an alternative I have tried but having issues: I have created two rows for this group header one printing from header and another printing from main area. Whenever there is a page break the same group header prints as part of the header and on the rest of the page it prints from the main area. But in a particular scenario, there is a new group starting at almost bottom of the page but as there is not enough space left on the same page (page protection) jumps to next page. In this case there are two group headers printed one coming from the preivous page main area and another coming from the next page header. I hope my explanation is clear enough to understand.
Please suggest if there is any basic feature of smartform that I have missed out can solve this issue or if there is another alternative you can think of. I appreciate your responses.
Thanks..

I was able to solve this issue on my own.
Instead of checking for a page break on header line I am using a flag that is prepopulated in the table. I set this flag whenver a new group of items starts. If the flag is set I print it from the main area and if it is not set I print it from the header. This helped in avoiding the multiple header lines..

Powerpivot 2013 doesn't work on Excel 2013 / Office 365: data model issue

Hi guys
I recently upgraded my Office 2010 to Office 365, with Excel 2013. Before installing Office 365 I uninstalled Office 2010. I'm running Windows 8 64 bits.
I have the Powerpivot 2013 add-in, I can activate it without any issue. However when I click on "manage" on any spreadsheet (including new empty ones) I have an error "We
couldn't load the Data Model. This may be because the Data Model in this workbook is damaged.", followed by "PowerPivot is unable to load the Data Model".
I tried to repair the installation to no avail. I tried to launch excel in admin mode, nothing better.
This issue seems to be shared by some other people on this forum but
with no satisfactory answer so far.
I had a SQL server 2012 plugin installed previously which I uninstalled as well, but no change.
Would you think of something else?
Thanks

Hi Rohit ,
I had copied these .class & .xml files under Myclasses -> oracle.apps.icx and oracle.apps.po and oracle.apps.fnd was same which comes part of the standard OA tutorial.
I copied same under Myprojects as well.
you have to decompile the class file into java file and then place it in Myproject directory , also copy all dependency files like BC4J components , and then
try to run from Jdeveloper .
Alternatively you can get the entire ICX folder and zip it and add it via library .

Does Acrobat Pro 9 support "page-break-before" CSS tag? ie Pagination issues

Hey there
Converting a whole stack of html files to PDF and having some pagination issues. Titles not staying with images and tables getting chopped in half by page breaks etc.
Thought i could solve it by using carefully placed "page-break-before:always" tags where i wanted the page break. Works as expected in Safari when i go to print but not when i "File:Create PDF: From File" in Acrobat Pro. They get ignored.
Here's how they should work:
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/page.html#x3
This is a major hassle. I've got over 600 webpages to convert to PDF's and manually entering <br> to force items onto the next page is getting old.
Here's some sample html, paste it into a file, save, open it in Safari and then go to print. It should print 7 pages. Open it in Acrobat Pro 9.1.0 and you get one page.
<body>
test0
<p style="page-break-before: always">
test
<p style="page-break-before: always">
test1
<p style="page-break-before: always">
test2
<p style="page-break-before: always">
test3
<p style="page-break-before: always">
test4
<p style="page-break-before: always">
</body>
The really nice thing is this would be so useful. You can attach the tag (page-break-before:avoid) to a Caption style and always be assured that it will stay with a following graphic when you print the webpage. Or use it to make sure a table doesn't get cut in half.
http://reference.sitepoint.com/css/page-break-after
http://reference.sitepoint.com/css/page-break-before
Any hints would be great

Nope. Did the </br> thing.
Cost me some serious cash. Very annoying.
I haven't tried it with Safari 5. Acrobat allowed me set page margins, something that Safari 4 didn't allow (didn't support margin css tags). But acrobat didn't support the pagination and Safari 4 did.
Like i said annoying
I'll see if Safari 5 supports the print margins css tags.
I'll prob get asked to do this again so would like to sort it out

Issues Saving Files; Excel 2013

Users are unable to save files using Excel 2013 (both .xls and .xlsx) to network share space. the return is "Someone else is working on 'J:\network space name\filename' right now. Please try again later". There are no other users
currently using the file in question and Folder and file ACL allows for full control. Users are able to save to their persistent D:\ volume (we are using VMware) but unable to breach the network space. I have full administrative rights and am experiencing
the same results, this includes a newly created file, files for which I have total ownership and files for which i have full control over. This condition is only true for Excel 2013, Office and other Suite applications are functioning well within tolerance.
This condition originally manifested when we first rolled out the MSFT Office 2013 image but subsided when we modified Trend Micro so that it would not scan edited files. After that it would only manifest occasionally and to single or a couple of users but
has now returned to being global. Any ideas as to how to remedy this would be greatly appreciated.

The blog post speaks to an error message that is not what my users are seeing. There is no reference to files being 'locked', rather it suggests that another user may be viewing the same file precluding a save action. Initially we believed it was related
to an issue caused by .TMP files but as it turned out a refresh of AV baseline policy relieved the condition. So it may have been a cache issue and how the AV was handling the temporary file but details behind causality could not be determined beyond refreshing
the base policy.
Thank you for your suggestion though, I appreciate the consideration.
