How to get rid of blank pages in report

AW

How do I get rid of blank pages that print after each page in my report.
Force new page is set to none in Report header/footer, Page header/footer,
and the Detail section.

this is normally caused when your page width plus margins is wider than the
paper size. In other words, you have your paper set to 8 1/2 by 11. You
margins are 1" on the left and right, but your report detail section is
wider than 6 1/2 inches.

Either reduce your margins, reduce your detail section width, or select a
wider paper size.

While in design view, place your cursor over the right edge, click and drag
it smaller.

What is your right and left margin? What is your paper size? What is the
page orientation?

THere is no section properties (force new page). M report is 6 1/2. the
margin are:Top- 1, Bottom- 1, Left- 0.5 & right- 0.5 .

I have done all that you explained, and I am still getting every other page
as a blank one. All my margins are well under a quarter inch, my page size
has gone to Legal and my Viewable area is 8" high by 10" wide. (Landscape
layout). What is strange is I am getting a thick black line along the top of
some of the blank pages that I can not find in my document or its settings.
Could this be the cause? When I put the table back to Letter paper I get
about 5 blank pages between pages.

You probably have a line control that extends further to the right than
necessary. Find it, shrink it, shrink your report width.
