Use Crystal.

You will need to download the add on runtime suite (Free) from their site but 
it is much easier to control.

Subject: [NF] Reporting in .NET

Hi 

 

I'm evaluating Visual Studio  and have got as far the built in RDLC report 
writer  which isn't anywhere near as good as fox.

 

One of my reports is a standard invoice layout, in fox I'd just draw the lines 
from the page header to the page footer and all works fine.

In RDLC this doesn't work.

 

It has this thing called a Tablix which I can put a border round but this box 
border is only as big as the number of lines in the table.

So with one line item on the invoice I get a small box with a load of white 
space which looks rubbish.

 

Does anyone know how to get the Tablix border  to fill the space between page 
header and page footer please?

 

The only answer  I can find on the web is adding blank records to the report 
datasource which sounds even worse, that or using Crystal.

 

Regards

Graham
