crystal report print in new page

[tirso]

hi to all

I have list of names in list view with corresponding unique employee id. The user could select more rows. In each employee id I will find it in database in retrieve all the details information and print it using crystal report. What I want is in each employee id it will print in separate pages.

Currently using my code, the records of other employee id will append on the current page instead to print in another page with new header and footer.

Any help would greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance

Below code is my form with crystalreportviewer

Private Sub frmIndividualDTRPrint_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    Dim frmRefIndividualDTR As frmIndividualDTR = DirectCast(frmMain.ActiveMdiChild, frmIndividualDTR)
    Dim dtFromDate As DateTime = frmRefIndividualDTR.dtpFromDate.Text

    Dim myRpt As New IndividualDTRReport

    Dim txtHeader As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.TextObject = myRpt.Section2.ReportObjects("txtHeader")
    txtHeader.Text = "No Bia Inc. Timecard Report"

    Dim txtDateNow As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.TextObject = myRpt.Section2.ReportObjects("txtDateNow")
    txtDateNow.Text = "Period Covered " & Format(dtFromDate, "d MMMM yyyy") & " - " & Format(dtToDate, "d MMMM yyyy")

    Dim row As DataRow = Nothing
    Dim DS As New DataSet

    'ADD A TABLE TO THE DATASET
    DS.Tables.Add("individual_dtr")

    'ADD THE COLUMNS TO THE TABLE
    With DS.Tables(0).Columns

hi sandeepparekh9,

Thanks for your immediate replied.

I tried your instruction but in every record of one employee id will go in each page instead of all records of one employee id at the same pages.

Kindly take a look at the screen shot below.

Thanks

hi..

what you can do is create a group in crystal report.

lets say you have uniqe employee id.

then create a group base on employee id.

then

right click on your Group Section's Header. then select the Selection Expert from dropdown.

now check : New Page Before

for more info check: http://www.crystalkeen.com/articles/crystalreports/pagebreaksgroup.htm
