Hi All. I could use a little help with what I think is a very basic crystal report (my expertise in CR is very limited). I've made a report in CR version 8.5 that looks like the following:
In my Details a section I have - Primary Addressee, Prospect Classification & Status, Total Gift Amount and Est. Giving Capacity (from a WealthEngine screening we did)
In my Details b section I have - Preferred Address & phone # (within a text box) and Last Action Date, Last Action Type and Last Action Actual Notes
So here is my problem. The report will list several constituents per page, but some people have really long notes and others don't. Once it gets to the bottom of the page if the action notes is really long the details a section info is going on one page and the details b section is going on another, so all I really want is to keep the two sections together because right now they are breaking across the pages. Do I need to put the two sections in one group?
You basically have two options: You can create a group and mark the group to "Keep together" or you can merge the two detail sections together. Since it looks like none of the fields in Detail A should be more than one line high, so you should be okay with doing this.
