    What preview do you use? The one that shows you the actual document layout, or the standard one?

    Oh I get it now (I hope). The preview and the layout preview difference.. The layout preview is what you get when you print it. If you use a footer in vs report builder, this will show on the bottom of you page. Always, so it leaves space between the body and the footer. The regular preview doesn't take this into account, it just works different. The footer (as a body section of the vs layout) just works that way.

    It is as I thought, using the footer section, your data will always be alligned to the bottom of the report.

    Just find another way to add this texbox to the body of the report. What you want is not possible using the footer property of an rdlc report.

    When you click on print layout the report is getting rendered to the definde paper size (see at report proberties in Report Builder). If your Body is not filling a whole page you will get a whitespace which is filling the rest of page. If you don't want this behaviour but your footer to the Body.

    Hello @mdsr I agree with what @TallyHo Said but i think you can drag the footer upwards it will narrow the gap between body and footer

    @mdsr the footer Position is fixed in the print layout. It just depends on the footer height. As far as i know you can not change this dynamically.
    I normally use a tablix for such a Problem an have one field for header one for body and one for footer. In this case the footer will always start right after the body
