Crystal Reports IX: How to suppress printing a Group Header when the details start on the next page?

Hi. How did you configure your Group Header to cause it to be repeated? Are you sure that it's not the Page Header that's being displayed on the next page?

One option you have is to enable the New Page Before option on your group header. This ensures that the group header begins at the top of a page thus leaving the maximum amount of space possible below the header for the details to be printed.

Response to author's Additional Details:

If you don't mind, can you share how you solved the original issue?

Also, for those reading this Q&A, the Repeat Group Header on Each Page option isn't located in the Section Expert. You need to use the Change Group feature and then go to the Options tab to enable the Repeat Group Header on Each Page.

Since there are only 2 hours left before this question is closed I thought I'd post some additional information that might be helpful to the viewing audience. I don't know how the author opted to solve the problem but I did come up with a viable solution (albeit a somewhat ugly one) using Global Variables.

Create the following 2 formulas:

@Group Header Print Count Reset

// Group Header Print Count Initialization

WhilePrintingRecords;

Global NumberVar GroupHeaderPrintCount;

GroupHeaderPrintCount = 0

@Group Header Print Count Increment

// Group Header Print Count Increment

WhilePrintingRecords;

Global NumberVar GroupHeaderPrintCount;

GroupHeaderPrintCount = GroupHeaderPrintCount + 1

Add the formula @Group Header Print Count Reset to the Report Header. Also add it to the Group Footer. Add the formula @Group Header Print Count Increment to the Group Header.

Then, assign to the Group Header's suppression formula the following:

// Group Header Suppress

WhilePrintingRecords;

Global NumberVar GroupHeaderPrintCount;

if (GroupHeaderPrintCount > 0) then

true

else

false

I haven't tested this (ran out of time) but it should work. Hope it's helpful.
