Re: Question regarding gb.report2

[gbWilly <gbWilly@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greg,

What version of Gambas are you using?
What you want is possible with gb.report2, but there where bugs in the component
I did report issues I had myself with a likewise problem as you seen to describe that have been fixed in 3.21.

Could you try 3.21 maybe and see if you still have the same problem?

The second table is long and will not fit on the remainder of the first page. Instead of starting the second table on the first sheet right after the first table, the report component starts the second table at the top of the second page because all of table two will not fit on the remainder of the first sheet. Is there a way to have the second table start on the first page?
