SSRS 2005 - Landscape Report exceeds margins in Report Viewer control.

  • Hi,

    I have created a server report that has 104 columns in a table. It's the first time I have done something of this magnitude, but in order to get the exactness I need in this data heavy report I was forced to do this.

    Anyway, everything is perfect EXCEPT the margins on the right are not honored when deployed to the Server. They're pushed to the right when they should not be. However, when I look at the margins when exporting to Acrobat the report is as it should be. I have come across a post which seems to deal with a similar topic but it is not the same I don't think because the report itself has wider margins as well as the printed region. The odd point is that Acrobat and the report designer do not show this problem. (See http://blogs.msdn.com/mattweber/archive/2006/07/11/correcting-the-printed-margin-calculation-of-the-windows-forms-reportviewer-control.aspx"> http://blogs.msdn.com/mattweber/archive/2006/07/11/correcting-the-printed-margin-calculation-of-the-windows-forms-reportviewer-control.aspx . The suggested solution of making the margins of left and top to be .5 in hasn't worked for me and I don't have the time or the patience to try the other method.)

    Anyone have this problem? Any solutions?

    Thanks,

  • As it turns out this is a bug in landscape reports. I removed all the elements on my page and left only a table in the body and a text box in the page header. Apparently, it's the way tables are handled in landscape reports. I didn't have the same problem when I had text box in the body of the report and a text box in the header.

    This is very easy to test and try for yourself. If anyone has any ideas for a workaround. I am all ears.
