Brian,

After you have opened PrntTags.rpt in crystal and a re in the design
tab.

1. Right click on the grey portion on the left (where it says
report header/page header) and choose Section expert
2. Click on the Details section in the section expert
3. Click on the layout tab

I think this is the area you are looking for.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [Vantage] Crystal Reports - Fixed Report Page Height and Width
on Certain Vantage Forms

I want to modify certain Vantage forms, for example the PrntTags.rpt
form to say, for example, increase the spacing between the tags.

It appears that on some of these reports there is some sort of fixed
report area size being imposed, as it is not possible to just increase
the height of a section and get what you want from Crystal. I also see
a grey box at the edge and bottom of the report that corresponds to the
imposed print area but I can't select it or otherwise interact with it.

This feature seems to be in use in a number of the "multiple reports
per page" forms in Vantage.

I've looked in Page Setup and Report Options and nothing seems obvious
to correspond with this.

I'm guessing this is something simple but I've done some searching and
reading and can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
