Crystal Reports – Keep Group on same page

by

The following guide describes how to create a Crystal Report which will keep grouped records on the same page.

In this example the ‘Group Header’ section is used to separate each record, so for ease of use it is importing that each Group Header does not span across multiple pages.

The image below demonstrates that the Group Header (GH1) has been placed on the previous page, leaving the records on this page without the ‘Project ID’ field value.
