ReportViewer page break on wrong page and generate unnecessary pages

Question

I am learning to create report viewer application. I have about 14 rows. For each 7 rows I am putting page break. But When I click on "Print Layout" to see the print preview , the first page has first 7 rows then next 3-4 page just blank and then again last 7 rows. In total it is always generating 6 pages.

To page break on specific rows I have tried:

• How to page break after specific row(Suppose 25 rows) in rdlc reporting

Why it is happening and how I can fix it please?

Answer 1

Check that your report is not too wide. If it is, the excess is put on the next page or pages.
