Hello all - I am trying to add the below fex to a compound PDF and receive this error. It is being passed a variable and then based on the value displays the text 'SDS' or spaces. If I create a new compound PDF with 3 fex's in it and this it works, but fails when I add it to my existing compound PDF for the same frame size. Any ideas???

Thanks!!!

Error message I'm receiving is:
(FOC3210) COLUMN TRUNCATED BECAUSE WIDTH EXCEEDS MARGINS; COLUMN: 1
(FOC3210) COLUMN TRUNCATED BECAUSE WIDTH EXCEEDS MARGINS; COLUMN: 3

What sort of compound report is it ?

COMPOUND OPEN|CLOSE

COMPOUND LAYOUT

It is COMPOUND LAYOUT. I'm not sure what COMPOUND OPEN|CLOSE is. This is only my second PDF.


*-HOLD_SOURCE
-* File pdf_overview
SET HTMLARCHIVE=ON
COMPOUND LAYOUT PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
UNITS=IN, $

ETC.....

Try adding
ON TABLE SET DROPBLNKLINE ALL
to the report

No, unfortunately after adding that I am still getting the error.

So they work individually ?

What are the size of the pages ?

Can you post the whole compound statement ?

Here is a link for documentation -Creating Compound Reports

You will need to logon to the Techsupport site to view the link.
