Do work with your ba to deal with overflow. That options for overflow are "void with overflow" or setting the number of remittance lines allowed for check. This will prevent random page-breaks. Best of luck.

I am designing a check using BI Publisher and the check form has 2 stub sections at the top and the check section is at the bottom. I manage to place the check section at the footer of the template so I am able to keep it fix there. However my dillema is with the stub sections. <br />challenge is the tables are resizing based on the number of records that are loading from my XML data. Each stub has 2 parts, one that has the invoice number, invoice date, amount and total in one row and the second part has the check number, the check date, the supplier and the total amount paid. And, these parts are separated by a bunch of empty rows. When I have 8 invoices, the check number section goes down and when the number of invoices is smaller the part that has the check number goes up, a real dillema. <br /><br />Do you a suggestion on how to fix that? <br />Thanks in advance for your help. <br />AbnerAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10763812327965181129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5406107793530126650.post-5166221686130406742015-08-25T09:38:39.480-07:002015-08-25T09:38:39.480-07:00Your xml is being pruned, that's likely why th...Your xml is being pruned, that's likely why the fields aren't being displayed.

The...BIP does allow fields to expand and contract. There are no differences between the tools in this regard. I believe you misinterpreted the post. There are situations where you must have a fixed width field, with a fixed amount text (examples would be pre-printed stationary. In msword you can set the cell to be fixed, non-issue in that sense. You can set it to wrap, non issue as well. What you can't do well is have text fit in a box and when the text exceeds the box have a page-break and create a new box. BIP msword does not as good of job as reports, in my experience this really the only thing reports 10g does better or can do for that matter. BIP msword, does pretty much everything else better, faster and easier like: not crashing, copying, pasting, fonts, groups, groupings, etc. <br /><br />"Reports6i has a field property called variable length or Expand. Depending on your need you can use this property to expand the field to fit in all your string. Your are not forced to use Fixed width field property.
