Report Caching Corrupting Reports
Posted: Mon Jul 13, 2009 11:24 am
Hello,
I am having some problems with Report Caching corrupting my report layout.
I am using vertical lines, horizontal lines, etc within a group header, footer, and databand in order to draw boxes around groups. This all works fine until the report is longer than the LimitForStartUsingCache. For example if I set LimitForStartUsingCache=10 pages the report will be fine, unless it is longer than 10 pages. Interestingly the corruption occurs on the pages up to the limit, in this case pages 1-10, but everything is fine after this point.
This is very simple to reproduce. Create a simpe report with a single databand. On the left and right edges of the databand draw a vertical line the height of the band. Therefore when you run the report, there are long vertical lines on the left and right edges of the report. Now run the same report but ensure it exceeds the LimitForStartUsingCache - just set this limit to a low value. Now up to that limit the lines are only shown on the first row of each page, but past the limit the lines are there as expected
This is exactly the sympton I am getting on my "live" reports. Any pages past the LimitForStartUsingCache are ok, but before that, all the lines are all over the place.
This is a very serious problem for us, so your assistance would be much appreciated.
Many thanks in advance
Robin
