Hi,

It could be reason that the layout width with left and right margins is more than defined page width. For example created layout width takes 19,7cm, defined page left margin takes 2,1cm, right margin - 2 cm and page size A4 width 21 cm x height 29,7, so total report width is left margin plus right margin plus layout width (2,1cm + 2cm + 19,7cm = 23,8 cm). 23,8 cm is more than defined page width 21 cm.
Solution reduce margins (recommendation for right margin always use 0cm). If it doesn’t help resize layout or change page sizes or format.

Hi nabil, thanks for the reply but i am talking about report header and report footer. not table header.

Hi Vijay,

The report header always print on every page unless you set to FALSE the properties PrintOnFirstPage and PrintOnLastPage.

But as you said, header is visible on first page. So PrintOnFirstPage is TRUE. Now, double check that PrintOnLastPage is TRUE also. (how many pages you have on your report?)

If PrintOnFirstPage and PrintOnLastPage are both TRUE then I believe you're using Tablix Header instead of report header. So my previous answer will help you.

Hi,

The report header is printing on every page. the problem is place of header is not as first page. when it print on second page the body record shifted up. That is the issue.
