Crystal Report too WIDE!!!!

[Steven McDonald]

Jus started working at a new company and need to fix an app.

The one report is giving me a headache though cos its hopelessly too wide. Can't find any way to reduce its width!!!!



PS: Can see the width Property (11936381) but its greyed out and I can't edit it!

How you checked its width property?
Strange, i've never met such problem before ... explain what you've done so far.

Regards

Well I opened the file and its soooooo long! like I said the width property is greyed out and I can't edit it!

11936381 is the width. Its insane!

Hey,

Is it possible to change the width by going into the designer generated code?
(I may be running on completely the wrong track, this is not unusual )

hey man,


reports in VS.Net 2003 don't show/have designed code. i hoped so but thanks anyway.

Indeed, sorry, me being dim as I generally expect, been having a play with crystal reports myself today, your problem sounds like a weird one. I realise it'll probably be of little help but I found this article when trying to resize stuff.

Thanks but unfortunately thats for edit field size. My report is actually impossibly wide. But thanks again

How do I attach the file?
