Report Shows Same View With Light Grey Background Again Access
- #i
Created a sub-study (tried same thing using a sub-form on the report) on the main report. At the elevation of the master written report is a graph. Directly below information technology is the data that supports the graph.
I am finding that if the sub-report had plenty data to abound beyond Page 1 (of the master report), subsequently the beginning page, the groundwork turns grey and is from the left border to the right boarder. I don't understand that since the subreport is failrly centered on the folio and does not accept many field to grow wider.
The outset page is perfect. It is like the subreport backgound is translucent.
I have a gold groundwork on the entire written report. It is basically a gold boarder used as a background (sort of like a certificate boarder). When pages later folio ane get that gray sub-report event, the groundwork written report boarder is over-printed.
If I use a sub-form (datasheet) instead of a sub-written report, information technology does the same thing, only only on the fifty-fifty pages. On the odd pages (ie., 1, three, etc), information technology looks fine and the gilt boarder prints fine without the subform groundwork turning grey and taking up the entire left-right width of the report.
I accept been chirapsia my head confronting the wall :banghead:trying to figure out this problem. This shouldn't be that difficult. Access shouldn't be doing this to me.
I have attched an example of what Admission is doing. Information technology is the PDF low quality output, 3 pages of the 9 page report.

In A2007 +, some sections have alternating background colors. Just make the alternate the same as the groundwork. This is used to requite what onetime timers used to call the "greenish bar" effect. Remember when mainframe printouts alternated betwixt white and green (other colors were bachelor just green was near common) lines.

Yup, I know how to do the green bar lines (pretty cool actually and yes, I used to accept that kind of newspaper in my wide dot matix printer all those years ago). Unfortunitely, thar united states not what us happening here.

More: run sub-study past iteself and print, it does not do that greying after first page. Removed dorsum ground movie (gold border) - still does it.
Main report nonetheless does this effect when the subreport overflows first page.
P.S. - simply decompiled and that did not assist. Sometimes that fixes weird issues.

Did you brand sure that the groundwork and alternate background of both the main report and subreport had the same value?

Good gosh, y'all know the simplest things! I accept spend litterally hours back and fourth between the sub-report and the main report trying everything imaginable.
I took your suggestion seriously, even though I thought "Yep, I take done that, how silly practice yous recollect I am ....." - LOL. Well for the Headers, footer and item sections, the Back Color was 'Background 1' for everything. They are still <exsplisive deleted>!!. I'll show him, I'll change them all to '#FFFFFF' it won't make any deviation! I did that to both the sub and main report. <heh heh heh> (by now the evil mad scientist growling and mumbling are happening) I'll show you! I ran the report to create the PDF. The fricking grayness bars, afterward the kickoff page are gone!
I owe you a bottle of Scotch sir!
This Access 2010 is nicer than my previous surroundings of Access 2000, simply it contains evil, miserable crap like this.
